Do you remember the days a few years ago when we thought elevated flip-flops were very controversial? Us Who What Wear editors (myself included) wrote story after story about thong sandals being “polarizing” and for this reason, I never thought they’d stick around for long. But now, we don’t even blink an eye when we see someone wearing them. And in case you’ve been wondering if flip-flops are going to be cool again this summer, your answer is here.
Earlier this week, Zoë Kravitz was photographed walking around New York City in a pair of flat thong sandals. And since Kravitz simply doesn’t wear anything that isn’t cool, what she does wear is a pretty good indicator of what’s stylish and “in”. So yeah, it’s safe to say that ordering another pair of flip-flops for summer 2023 wouldn’t be a risky move. Kravitz paired the chic square-toe flip-flops with baggy trousers and a trench coat—the perfect spring outfit if you ask me.
