Sock boots are an anti-fashion challenge from France
Can socks be fashionable? Quite. For example, if you wear them under sandals with high heels. And it is enough to believe the fashion reviewers who claim that it will be fashionable this spring. Or go even further and turn socks into boots with odd heels, as Vetements did. And what came of it, see below.

Extravagant shoes have long ceased to be something out of the ordinary. After all, modern fashion allows everything and even a little more. Although sometimes designers still manage to surprise the public. How would you react to a girl in sock boots?
Stocking boots and over the knee boots have been exploited by girls for many years with varying degrees of success. And all because of its increased "eroticism". Last season, tight as a second skin, over the knee boots returned to the wardrobe of many fashionistas. But now they have an evil sister - sock boots.
The name of this model speaks for itself. Super-slim shoes made of dense stretch fabric really look like their owner went out into the street in nothing but sports socks. This is hinted at by a wide sports elastic band over the ankle with the name of the brand, and the outsole, which is not at all noticeable at first glance.
But ordinary Vetements designers did not limit themselves to exceptional similarity with ordinary socks. And they added a little more charm to the boots by putting them on the heel. A heel suspiciously reminiscent of the classic BIC lighter.
Designers recommend wearing sock boots paired with loose tracksuits. With cropped or tucked-in pants so that the elastic is visible. And yes, for those for whom the sock version is too (or, conversely, not enough), Vetements also released stocking boots.
Vetements is a young French brand that positions itself as "anti-fashion". Vetements style is oversized jackets, bomber jackets, extra long sleeve sweatshirts and loose tracksuits. Despite all the rebelliousness and fashion challenge, the anonymous designers of Vetements receive mostly positive reviews from fashion critics and increased interest from the stars. So all this "anti-fashion" chaos has every chance to become mainstream soon.
