The Leibling Shoes Summer 2011 Collection has 70s-Inspired Sophistication

— June 7, 2011 — Fashion
Many women jump at the opportunity to wear cute ballet flats, like the ones within the Leibling Shoes Summer 2011 collection, as opposed to heels everyday. Heels are synonymous with blisters, bunions and sore feet as a whole for many women, and considering this, flats have become very popular as an alternative.

The Leibling Shoes Summer 2011 collection has a flirty mix of comfy flats and equally comfy heels, with heights that are far from sky-scraping stilettos. The 70s-inspired designs within this season's collection have retro flair and elegance.

Bright blues, yellows, reds and corals are paired with slingback and peep-toe shoe styles to form a flirty shoe collection with flair. If you're looking to invest in some charming shoes this season, these flats and heels would compliment any existing wardrobe.
Trend Themes
1. Comfy Flats and Heels - Opportunity for shoe brands to innovate and respond to the demand for comfortable footwear without sacrificing style.
2. Retro-inspired Designs - Opportunity for fashion designers to create collections that draw inspiration from past eras and tap into the nostalgia trend.
3. Colorful Shoe Styles - Opportunity for footwear brands to experiment with vibrant colors and unique styles that stand out in a sea of neutral footwear.
Industry Implications
1. Shoe Manufacturing - Opportunity for manufacturers to invest in new technologies and materials that prioritize both comfort and style.
2. Fashion Design - Opportunity for designers to incorporate retro elements and bold colors into their collections and capture the interest of fashion-forward consumers.
3. Retail - Opportunity for retailers to curate a selection of comfortable yet fashionable shoes that cater to a wide range of customer preferences.
