Summer has rolled into full force with the gladiator sandal onboard, once again the season's 'most wanted' foot gear. Open any fashion magazine or if you happen to fly out for a holiday then walk into any shoe store and these coveted shoes will stare you in the face, screaming for attention. Gladiators are being stocked and restocked everywhere, from departmental stores like Marks and Spencers to high-end brands like Jimmy Choo and everything in between. Interestingly, every label has lent this Roman icon its own little signature. Jimmy Choo has given it a razor sharp heel and a florescent leather upholding, Guess has produced the gladiator in platforms while Zara has them flat with trendy zippers holding them up the ankles. YSL has created a metal cage while Miu Miu has a more conservative look. |
