Diana of Wales’s style is more present than ever thanks to her children’s wives, Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle. The Princess of Wales and the Duchess of Sussex are very aware of Lady Di and often pay tribute to her with outfits that are based on some of her most iconic looks, in addition to using her jewelry.
But the princess also continues to be a source of inspiration for many fashion brands. The Row or Loro Piana are some of the brands that for their autumn-winter 2024/25 collections have recovered one of the shoes most worn by the mother of Princes William and Enrique during the 80s and 90s.
These are the almond-shaped shoes that Diana Spencer made one of her favorites to attend her different public engagements and that guaranteed absolute comfort thanks to their heel, which at that time was square. In addition, they had a V-neckline and slightly rounded toe.
There were several occasions where Lady Di could be seen with this type of footwear that little by little has been gaining presence in street style. The model Jasmine Tookes, known for being a Victoria’s Secret angel, has been one of the first to join this trend with which one of the quintessential granny shoes is versioned.
It does so with a white design by Loro Piana, which has included several different models of these almond-shaped shoes that can be found with a low heel that guarantees that comfort, especially when worn throughout the day. Another company that also sells these shoes with a sharp neckline is Massimo Dutti.
The Inditex brand sells a slingback model made of brown cowhide, with the outer lining made of leather, an eight-centimeter heel and the AIRFIT® insole, designed to offer greater comfort. The shoes are priced at 89.95 euros and are available from size 35 to 42.
