Australian Fashion Week
5/22/2025
Sculptural silhouettes. Soft neutrals. Bared everywhere. Australian Fashion Week has turned our feeds into a mood board of magnificent new ways to wear everything. Outfit ideas? Overflowing. Style crushes? Everywhere. The secret weapon? Bared. Making it through AFW in comfort and style has never been easier. Let’s see how some of our favourite fashion icons wore your new favourite shoes.
Knee High Boots
From the front row to post-show drinks, knee-high boots made their mark. Our tall silhouettes add polish to any look while keeping things grounded (literally). Designed for long-wear comfort, they’re your winter wardrobe’s secret weapon.

ABOVE | Pandion | @sophiederenzy
We’re obsessed with Em’s off-duty glam in the Sitta boot - equal parts sleek and statement. She’s layered up in a belted trench and bold accessories, giving city-cowgirl energy that’s both polished and powerful. With a sculptural silhouette and all-day comfort, Sitta is the knee-high that works overtime - from front row to after-hours.
Sophie keeps things sharp in the Pandion boot - the definition of refined edge. Styled with a structured denim trench and oversized shades, this look is tailored, textural and totally timeless. The sleek pointed toe and sculptural heel add just the right amount of drama. From pavement to afterparty, Pandion leads the way.
ABOVE | Remiz | @lauraroscioli
Laura brings a fresh take on modern prep in the stretch leather Remiz boot - sleek, sculptural, and endlessly versatile. Her layered shirting, oversized bow and mini skirt combo is equal parts playful and polished, anchored perfectly by the second-skin silhouette of Remiz. Comfort meets contour in a boot that hugs, flexes, and flatters.
Heels
Heels, but make them wearable. Whether it was sculptural block shapes or barely-there strappy styles, Bared’s heel edit proved you can have both comfort and impact. Height, meet all-day ease.
ABOVE | Sylph | @christinebalaguer_
Christine makes a strong case for power dressing in the Sylph heel - a textural standout in Chocolate Snake. Styled with a sharply tailored coat, sheer layers and a hint of Parisian flair, this look balances bold structure with elegant edge. Finished with a sculptural heel and signature hardware, Sylph delivers all-day comfort with high-fashion attitude.
Western Boots
The Western boot is having its high-fashion moment - and we’re here for it. A festival favourite, rotation essential and a style statement. Trust us, you need a pair in your wardrobe - these are the ones worth making room for.
ABOVE | Strix | @emmgurr
Em rewrites the Western rulebook in the Strix boot - a refined take on the classic cowboy silhouette. Styled with a crisp white shirt dress and statement tights, this look marries soft femininity with directional edge. In rich Dark Oak leather, Strix brings subtle Western curves and all-day comfort to your modern wardrobe rotation.
Loafers
Loafers are the style set’s not-so-secret styling hack - and this season, they’re everywhere. Styled with socks and oversized blazers, or clashed with floaty dresses for contrast, the humble loafer has become a fashion week fixture. Ours deliver timeless appeal, a little edge, and all-day comfort that doesn’t quit.
ABOVE | Capito | @divrav
ABOVE | Maleo | @christinamacpherson
Div proves the loafer reigns supreme in the bold, two tone Capito. Styled with a tonal mini set, oversized outerwear and graphic accessories, this look hits that perfect note of retro-scholarly and modern cool. With contrast panelling and all-day wearability, Capito is the go-to for fashion insiders who favour edge with ease.
Christina brings effortless polish in the Maleo loafer - proof that comfort and cool can coexist. Styled with a silky slip dress and classic trench, this look is soft, elevated and endlessly wearable. With gold stud detailing and our signature support, Maleo adds just the right edge to a timeless ensemble.
ABOVE | Wedgebill | @sharonjohal
Sharon brings a joyful twist to street style in the Wedgebill loafer - Golden Tan perfection with a vintage soul. Styled with soft knits, a pleated mini and layered pastels, this look is playful, polished and totally original. With heritage-inspired hardware and cushioned support, Wedgebill is made for all-day fashion moments with flair.
Ankle Boots
Our structured-yet-supple ankle boots add a refined finish to any ensemble - whether you're pavement-pounding between shows or heading out for dinner. Elevated essentials, made for everyday moments.
ABOVE | Kingfisher | @havanattan
Havana nails elevated neutrals in the Kingfisher boot - a Golden Tan staple with refined edge. Her boucle midi and leopard-print accents bring texture and tone to a look that’s both polished and playful. With a soft almond toe and block heel, Kingfisher steps effortlessly from day to night in standout style.
