Emily Ratajkowski’s platform flip flops are the shoe of summer
Axel Arigato has been on our fashion radar for a while now, pretty much since its launch in 2014. Gaining notoriety among the style set for its chunky fashion trainers, the Swedish brand – named after the Japanese pursuit of perfection in the smallest of details – creates collections possessing a sleek minimalism that rivals that of Veja, but with edgier, head-turning design details. The retro-inspired silhouettes feel so of-the-moment without losing their timeless appeal.
And yet, it's not a pair of Axel Arigato trainers we're currently lusting after. Rather, top of our Axel Arigato wishlist is the label's Delta Sandal. A classic, traditional flip flop style with a simple toe thong, elevated with a rounded platform base and puffy straps. It gives the squishy illusion the shoes have been inflated with air.
The fact it was Emily Ratajkowski modelling these shoes only increases our desire to make them ours.
EmRata was spotted out in New York yesterday [Thursday 27 June] wearing a casual ensemble consisting of an oversized white button-down shirt worn open over a tan bra and khaki green cargo pants. Despite their roots as poolside sandals, the addition of the black platform flip flops effortlessly dressed up her off-duty 'fit. Black sunglasses and her signature gold hoop earrings completed the look.
Oh, and did we mention Emily's Axel Arigato platform flip flops are currently on sale? A whopping discount down from £135 to £55.
There are only a few sizes left, so you better move quick if you want to steal EmRata's style. The sandals also come in five other colourways including a bubblegum pastel pink, a pale dusty blue and a bright green that's giving major brat girl summer vibes.
Yep, it's not a want it's a *need*.
