Espadrilles look to be summer's sole success after Beyoncé endorsement
Beyoncé's Tabitha Simmons espadrilles boast an Oxford-style lace-up front, a flat jute-covered sole, and navy blue and gold stripes.
The humble espadrille – the rope-soled canvas shoe that originated as the hardy summer footwear of 14th-century peasants in the Spanish Pyrenees – is shaping up to be the surprise style hit of this heatwave.
At the online boutique my-wardrobe.com, buyer Georgina Coulter reports an 88% growth in espadrilles sales "in the past week, since the warm weather began".
Beyoncé recently posted online a snap of her feet in £355 Tabitha Simmons lace-up espadrilles.
Misleading title... Nowhere does it say Beyonce boosted sales. It simply says she endorsed them when she posted a pic of herself wearing them recently. The sales boost is due to the warm weather and espadrilles have been back in style.
