A few seasons ago, flip-flops were exclusively a beach story, and later they became a full-fledged part of the urban wardrobe and even the red carpet. The Row, Bottega Veneta, Balenciaga picked up this idea and reinterpreted them in leather, suede and velvet. The result is the most unexpected luxury accessory of the season. This summer, flip-flops with a maxi dress are an elegant trend that is worth trying out now.
