Let’s face it: Sofia Richie have all the power these days. Since then her Southern France wedding for music executive Elliot Grainge a few weeks ago, the internet hasn’t stopped talking about her, her makeup routine, and most often her style. In fact, everything she wore to the wedding or after went viral and sold out. So when she wears an old fashioned sandal not once but twice on her honeymoon, I have the feeling that, given her current level of influence, they could go from outside in. When that happened, I was right.
The summer footwear style in question is gladiator sandals, which peaked in the mid-2010s only to live in fashion purgatory ever since. It wasn’t until Richie wore two pairs—one by The Row in a poplin Prada shirt dress and one by Gianvito Rossi in a glittering gold Rodarte dress—that hope for those sandals was truly born. For now, shop for all of the most luxurious gladiator sandals on the market this season. Oh, and don’t forget to thank the newlyweds when you grab a pair for yourself.
