Kate Middleton Swaps Her Nude Courts for This New Shoe Trend

However, one thing that did surprise us about Kate Middleton’s Wimbledon 2022 attire was her shoe choice. Where Kate goes, her nude suede court shoes usually follow, but today, Kate decided to mix things up a bit, instead opting for a pair of cream slingback stilettos, complete with a black cat to the rounded toe. Our guess is that Kate Middleton chose the shoe to match the ‘40s feel of her dress—what’s more impressive, however, is that she tapped into one of the biggest shoe trends of the year. From Gucci to Chanel, and & Other Stories to Arket, slingbacks are integral to every footwear collection this summer. Now, with Kate Middleton’s seal of approval, we’re willing to bet they’ll be the shoe of occasion season.

Kate Middleton’s Wimbledon 2022 dress might be sold out, but we’ve found the best alternatives to try now, as well as some cream and white slingback shoes to pair them with. See them below.
