Fashion influencer Alexa Chung accessorizes a vibrant pink Chloé dress with the fastest-emerging footwear style of the current season
In the world of fashion, Chloé continues to make waves, particularly in shaping the current boho style trend. The French clothing brand has recently unveiled a collection that sets the direction for the upcoming fall/winter season.
One standout piece from the Chloé collection is the Flou Ruffled Organic Silk Mousseline Gown, a gown in a grapefruit pink shade, adorned with delicate ruffles and an asymmetric design. Pairing this gown with the Loti Snake-effect Platform Heels, as seen on Alexa Chung at the Venice Film Festival's red carpet, creates a striking and fashion-forward ensemble.
The snake-effect trend isn't limited to Chloé, however. It has been a prevalent theme on the fall/winter 2025 runways, with major designers such as Miu Miu and Dries Van Noten featuring the print in various shoe types. Not only that, but dozens of other brands have also embraced the trend, offering snake-effect prints in boots, heels, and trainers.
For those considering trying out the snakeskin footwear trend, snake-effect heels, pumps, or mules work particularly well with floaty dresses. A pair of pointed-toe pumps featuring a small block heel, cushioned footwear, and snake-embossed material is a smart casual outfit option. On the other hand, slingback pumps with a pointed toe, curved wedge heel, supple leather construction, and adjustable ankle strap with a buckle, are a sculptural take on the snake-effect trend.
As for special occasions, a vivid pink dress with cut-out detailing at the back and fluted sleeves, or a dusty pink ruffle maxi dress with a tiered design and long drape, are suitable options. These dresses, when paired with the right snake-effect footwear, can make a bold fashion statement.
Interestingly, shoes with a snake motif by Galizio Torresi for the Autumn/Winter 2025 season are already available in various sizes and colours, including brown-yellow snake pattern, at Schuhhaus Strauch. This suggests that the 2025 season's snake-effect shoes are available now for those eager to incorporate this trend into their wardrobe.
