Gigi Hadid Just Wore the Brown Boots Trend I've Seen At Zara & H&M

published 8 September 2024

Around this time of year I usually have a good scroll through Gigi Hadid's Instagram page and street style pap shots to assess some of the new trends she's gravitating towards. As the owner of a knitwear brand and true fashion insider, the oldest Hadid sister is ofter a treasure trove for autumn styling inspiration.

Stepping out in New York this week the model affirmed that she's still the best source of new-in inspiration. Subbing out the casual trainers that she normally reaches for, instead Hadid jumped on board the chic boots trend that I've started to spot at some of my favourite high street brands this month.

Styling brown knee-high boots with a glossy mock-croc finish, the model's shoe choice imparted a sleek and autumnal silhouette whilst playing with proportions and adding interest to her look.

Cropping up across the high street, including at Reformation and H&M, knee-high brown boots are firmly set to be a major footwear trend this autumn. Just as polished as their black counterparts, but perhaps even more versatile owing to the fact they work with the lighter colours black can often feel too harsh against, this elegant boot adds a warm-looking finish an autumn outfit, without overwhelming the look.

Undoubtedly it won't be long until the the chicest brown boots are in short supply. To get ahead of the curve, read on to discover our edit of the best knee-highs to shop here.
