What's New: July 1

This week, the "What's New" was all about footwear, with a sprinkle of vacation! Retailers focused on artistic collabs, classic shoe silhouettes, and the resurgence of a '90s cult favorite.
ESPADRILLES
While espadrilles remain a resort and vacation classic, we’re seeing more variations of the classic style - from platform to wedged renditions and printed and embellished styles - this season. The casual and comfortable aspects of espadrilles with added height is a summer plus.

VAULT BY VANS HONORS FRIDA KAHLO
Following a collaboration with the Van Gogh Museum last year, Vans is releasing another range of artist-inspired sneakers. Vault by Vans is honoring the influential late Mexican artist Frida Kahlo with a special lineup featuring three of Vans’ iconic styles: the Sk8-Hi, Authentic, and Slip-On.

MINI DRESSES
As the temperature increases, retailers are raising those hemlines for more leg revealing mini dresses. Whether a slip style, bold shoulder, or wrap style, the universal attribute here is to stop above the knee.

MEN'S BERMUDA SHORTS
Vacation shopping is in full effect, and while linen options are traveler's first pick--new choices have emerged in the men's section. Bermuda shorts in jersey, linen, and cotton fabrics are all new this week in retailer's arrivals.

KITTEN HEELS
This low-to-the-ground footwear originally appealed to nostalgic memories from epic 90’s fashion moments, and now the trend is back and making its way into chic collections. Kitten heels offer a variety of assortment options from strappy open toe sandals to closed toe pumps.
