Call It a Comeback: Flip Flops Are Red Carpet-Ready


Once reserved for beach days and backyard lounging, flip flops have officially stepped into the spotlight. In 2025, they’re not just casual—they’re couture.

👠 From Poolside to Party

The humble thong sandal has undergone a transformation. Designers like Chloé, Ferragamo, and Toteme are crafting flip flops in satin, leather, and jelly textures, pairing them with everything from floral gowns to tailored suits. Celebrities are embracing the look too—Hailey Bieber’s heeled Toteme flip flops and Khloé Kardashian’s quilted Chanel pair are redefining red carpet footwear.

🔥 Why the Flip Flop Renaissance?

Fashion insiders say it’s all about contrast. Mixing laid-back sandals with luxe outfits creates a “wrong shoe” moment that feels fresh and intentional. Think velvet gowns with rubber soles or power suits with minimalist leather straps. It’s ugly-chic, and it’s everywhere.

The Chloé Jelly Sandal (looks like flip flop) is the unexpected star of the season—a playful yet polished twist on nostalgic footwear. Crafted from transparent TPU with a shell-shaped heel and wavy sole, it blends whimsy with runway elegance. The kitten-heel silhouette adds just the right lift, making it perfect for pairing with boho dresses or tailored shorts. First seen on Chloé’s SS25 runway, these sandals were styled with puffed bloomers and floral gowns, proving their versatility and fashion-forward edge. Whether you’re channeling Arielle Charnas’s laid-back glam or embracing the full Chloé aesthetic, this jelly sandal is your ticket to effortless summer chic.
