Even fashion editors who spend our days swimming in runway images, sifting through styling ideas and casting eyes on endless new-season arrivals, figuring out how to make skinny jeans feel relevant again has proven tricky. After all, they dominated our wardrobes for more than a decade, and most of the footwear pairings we instinctively reach for still evoke the mid-2010s. That’s why I was so enthused this morning when I caught sight of Kendall Jenner wearing her slim-fitting jeans with a shoe trend that managed to revive the silhouette. Working a jolt of colour into her off-duty look, the model stepped out in L.A. wearing her mid-wash skinnies with a slip-on pair of The Row’s (currently on sale) Mila Satin Flats (£602) in a vivid shade of red.

Anchoring her jeans with a shoe colour trend that feels distinctly modern, Jenner breathed new life into the “dated” silhouette. The red satin lent her outfit a refined energy, while the flat mules’ silhouette nodded to one of the season’s favourite shoe shapes.
