In T Australia’s column 1 Piece, 10 Budgets, we share 10 perfect versions of an item in a range of prices. Flats for fall? How astute. If you’re hankering after a pair that’s cross-laced, classic black, lambskin, and wide-band supported – you’re in the right place. We’re piecing together a collage of ten perfect pairs for the colder months, below.
These silky lamb Rhinas in chocolate are the go-to for autumnal dressing. The shoes are also handcrafted in Europe in none other than the brand’s own Copenhagen.
For the square-toe, heel-capping enthusiasts, this pair comes in a glossy sheen of black with a drawstring ribbon to top.
How does one even consider ballet flats without the original harbinger of the trend? Miu Miu’s iteration in orchid pink is one of the most classic and recognisable soles. We’ll take the lot.
A cross-hybrid between a mule and a flat, these suede beauties are easily slid on and adorned with a delicate front bow. They’re also made in Spain and lined with lamb suede.
Saint Laurent’s slip on is in the quintessential black and square-toe formula of some of our favourite pairs. The satin crepe adds a touch of luxury to the otherwise refined flat.
Who said flats have to be unassuming? GANNI’s wide-heft lace-ups come in a smattering of colours from fire engine red, black, cheetah print and sky blue. They’re also inspired by the lace-up boots of the 20’s. Commit to the style with minimal fuss.
A classic silhouette with some adornments, this entry from SHUSHU/TONG is a polished style with a crisscrossing lace-up strap. The leather heel is ideal for stepping out with verve.
The Elme from Jimmy Choo is a timeless silhouette. Made entirely from from Nappa leather, the top-end hangs with a pearl and a crystal adorned bow. Don’t forget to clock the Jimmy Choo emblem.
For all statement needs, this cuff-ended addition from Gucci is smart, bombastic and bold. The 70s-inspired cut pays direct homage to the house heritage and Italian codes with its original canvas GG cuff.
Crafted from premium acid-wash denim, the Fredric Jeans from Courtney Zheng feature an asymmetric waistband and a relaxed, wide-leg cut. Wear for all your lived-in, effortless needs.
