Nothing smacks of confidence like a pair of white boots. There’s nowhere to hide if they get covered in puddle muck - and therefore they require MI6 levels of vigilance when you’re walking around to keep them spick and span. Relaxing? No. Chic? Yes.

It also appears that shoppers don’t seem to care about having to tread carefully. The shopping app LIKEtoKNOW.it has reported that searches for ‘white ankle boots’ have increased by a whopping 3000%. This would explain why the front rows at Paris Fashion Week were lined with optic white styles, from singer Lous and the Yakuza’s stacked platform pair to influencer Emili Sindlev’s monochrome top-cap Chanel boots.

Rest assured, there’s a style out there for every type of boot enthusiast. If you’re a Cuban-heeled kind of gal, try & Other Stories’s cowboy boot in cream and white leather. By Far’s grungy platform will confer instant cool-girl status, while Prada’s leather Chelsea boots are more of an off-duty all-rounder.

Whatever you choose, remember - these boots are made for walking, but do so with your eyes trained to the pavement.
