Colors and prints

Reviewers of the latest fashion collections, stylists and glossy magazines never tire of repeating the relevance of traditional black and brown colors in the autumn-winter time. These shades have long been an integral attribute cold season.

But there was a place in designer collections for bright colors. Famous brands offer to try on boots in bright blue, light blue, green, orange, yellow, red and brown colors. Such variations were found on the catwalk, both in monochrome and in contrasting combinations of two shades.

This trend can be seen in expressive jacquard patterns, inscriptions, images ancient heroes, floral ornament, in the patchwork technique and other colorful motifs that have found a place in design solutions.

The traditional boot model that opens the new cold season is ankle boots. In fashion like ankle boots classic version, so with original decor.

This year on the catwalk you could see ankle boots with laces, zippers, and also men's style. These boots, depending on the style, will go well with both skirts and trousers. Goes well with the dress classic models ankle boots with heels.

Gladiator style high boots

This trend is quite contradictory. And it causes both admiration and bewilderment at the same time. Of course, in summer time no one would have any questions, but in the cold autumn and winter the question of the feasibility of this model arises.

Lace-up boots are also noteworthy. This trend has been in no hurry to leave the fashion pedestal for several seasons in a row and this is not surprising. Such models allow you to optimally choose shoes for different calf sizes, and lacing adds sophistication and charm to the entire look.

Shoes reflect our lifestyle and sometimes our hopes. For those around her, she becomes a social marker. We need shoes, and by purchasing them, we begin to feel better and more confident.

And in the fall-winter 2015–2016 season, not only shoes, but all shoes are special. The designers tried to create comfort and pleasure for women of all ages...

The main fashion trends in shoes for the 2015–2016 season

Let's start with shoes, which are very necessary for autumn and winter. These are boots. In the 2015-2016 season, designers offer various models boots - boots with low heels, without heels, with high stiletto heels or with pillar heels, boots with high tops and ankle boots, boots with a top widened at the knee and tightly fitting the leg, boots with a platform in the toe part and with a high solid platform consisting from several layers. Among them there are models, the prototype of which are riding boots (riding boots) or army jackboots, there are biker boots, stocking boots and, of course, over the knee boots.

Over the knee boots and stocking boots can be called one of the important trends of the 2015-2016 season. It is worth noting the real triumph of boots, although they have been popular for more than one season, but in the new one they have “grown” even more. They carry a powerful masculine charge, because many designers offer girls to look bold, independent and even aggressive, and yet do not forget to emphasize their charm and femininity.

Stocking boots turned out to be no less popular on the catwalk than over the knee boots, and acquired an even greater height, almost to the thigh, they have a more fitted silhouette. Both over the knee boots and stocking boots lengthen long legs, draw the eye up the leg, leaving only a narrow strip of the body.

These boots symbolize the highest self-confidence and carry erotic character. All this erotica is completed with a stiletto heel or a straight high heel, sometimes with a platform in the toe. However, there are trends towards lower heels. And Vivienne Westwood offers boots without heels at all. The best material for these boots are leather, suede, velvet of various colors.

It should also be noted that the next one is lacing. Over the knee boots are often accompanied by lacing, which is done both at the front and at the back.

Lacing, straps and weaves

Lacing is not limited to boots, it has found its place in ankle boots and shoes. And in sandals it is replaced by many straps and weaves, however, in the fall-winter season 2015-2016, these straps are most often woven in the horizontal direction.

In the collections autumn-winter 2015 – 2016 great place are occupied by ankle boots that gracefully fit a woman’s leg and confidently stay on high heels-column. But if any of you are fanatically in love with stilettos, you can find them in the Ashish collection.

Heels and platform

Among all the heels in the new collections, designers paid more attention to low heels and high heels - a column.

But, despite this, the wedge heel remains with us, which was preferred by Fendi, V?ronique Leroy, Sportmax, Rebecca Minkoff, cone heel, sloped heel, Louis heel, glass heel, stiletto heel.

A high platform in the toe part of the shoe balances it, which can be an eternal stiletto heel or a post. You may see a tall solid double or stacked platform. Designers Antonio Marras and Alexander Wang seriously demonstrated this on the catwalk. High and at the same time wide heels were preferred by Marc Jacobs and Mulberry.

Welt on the sole offered by designers Marni, Mother of Pearl, Paul Joe, Max Mara, Sacai, John Galliano, Lanvin, Veronique Branquinho and many others. The welt is originally combined on shoes with high and low heels, as well as with a wedge or “tractor” sole.

These shoes look somewhat aggressive and resemble military style. And indeed, we have to agree with this, because jackboots and Dr. boots. Martens are military shoes, and they have this attraction. Although it is not worth completely asserting that the welt and the “tractor” sole are an attribute of only army shoes. Look at the very feminine shoes from Marni or Veronique Branquinho.

Women's boots are rightfully considered members of the ruling dynasty in the huge “shoe kingdom”. They are relevant in the autumn-spring-winter season. And this position is due to practicality, its stylish appearance and a wide variety of styles.

And in the new autumn-winter season, fashionistas will not have to complain about monotony. They are presented with both innovative models, which are distinguished by unexpected stylistic solutions, and classic ones.

Let's take a closer look at what fashionable boots should be for fall-winter 2015-2016

The main trend of the coming cold season is boots with high tops. They are the ones that are so loved by fashionistas all over the world. Street fashion, one might say, snatches on the fly new items from the catwalks that are practical and appropriate in everyday life.

I would like to note that high boots and stockings are not in fashion today. Unfortunately or fortunately for those who, due to their shape and structure of the legs, could not afford them before. But knee-high boots with a narrow top are popular. Compared to stockings they have a number of advantages:
- fabric has been replaced by hard leather, and it slightly models the shape of the leg;
- versatility, these boots fit with any clothes (shorts, skirts, jeans, trousers, breeches, dresses).

If we talk about heels, low ones are in fashion. stable heel. As for the toe, a blunt one is preferable, even a square one, and as for the style, it’s retro. Decor is welcome, the color is the one you like and suits you.

The interesting thing is that such boots can be worn by a woman of any age, and they will look stylish and appropriate on her feet.

Look at the creations of designers presented at fashion weeks in Paris, London, New York, Milan:

Cossack boots fall-winter 2015-2016 or boots with a wide top

This option is more suitable for women aged 30-35 years. They are usually generously lined with fur, both inside and out, making them very warm.

Those for whom convenience and comfort in the winter are important will definitely be pleased with low heels.

I would like to note that boots with wide tops are well suited for those with thin legs.

Over the knee boots for the fall-winter season 2015-2016

As for this type of shoe, today any options are in fashion: stiletto heels, flat sole and wide heels. The good thing is that such heeled boots are combined with different types clothes.

To summarize, I would like to note that today luxury materials, interesting decor, bold color solutions and 60s style.
