Which sneakers go with dresses?
AdvertisementIn hectic everyday life, no shoe is as comfortable as sneakers. The classic sneakers are suitable for every occasion and will simply never go out of style. If you want to combine sneakers with a dress, everything is generally allowed. Whether sporty running sneakers or the classic models from Reebok, Adidas and Nike - there is a suitable dress for every sneaker. Even models like the coarse chunky or dad sneakers go well with some dresses and ensure a stylish look. High-top sneakers are also a popular choice, but are best suited for taller women as they make the legs appear slightly shorter.
Sneaker Dress Styling Tips
AdvertisementCoordinating sneakers with a dress can be tricky, but if you keep a few things in mind, you're sure to pull off the look. Here are our styling tips for the sneaker-dress combo.
Tip 1: White sneakers are a must-have
There is probably hardly a woman who doesn't own a pair of white sneakers. Because white sneakers are particularly versatile and are considered the classic among shoes. And the best thing about it - you can wear them with both sporty and more elegant outfits. They combine well with solid color, patterned or striped dresses and go well in any season. The white sneakers are even a popular choice for brides to wear under the wedding dress.
What white sneakers to wear with a dress? There is no clear answer to this question. Platform sneakers pair well with a shirt dress, while high tops look great with a babydoll dress. Chunky trainers might be a bit trickier to pair with a sundress, but a pair of white pairs beautifully with a maxi dress with a summery print. Leather sneakers with a minimalist design, on the other hand, can be worn with almost any dress.
Tip 2: Combine colorful sneakers correctly
If you want to make a statement with the shoes and not with the dress, you should combine them with a dress in a neutral color. Because colorful sneakers look much better with monochrome clothing.
Things are different with black sneakers. Black styles like the iconic Vans canvas shoes look great with a tennis dress or to complete an all black outfit with a black maxi dress.
Tip 3: Choose the right socks
As far as socks are concerned, it would be advisable to wear low-cut socks or no socks at all. If you wear low socks, make sure they either match the shoes or are a neutral color. The reason you shouldn't wear socks or low-cut socks is because it makes your legs appear longer and you have one less thing to adjust. However, there are also dresses that sneakers with high socks go well with, as you will see in our picture gallery.
