MICAM-MILAN
USPA NEWS -
Footwear will step back into classic styles next winter with an essential palette of basic tones and a minimalist approach to both women's and men's styles, according to fall-winter 2015 collections debuted at international footwear trade show MICAM wrapping up Wednesday in Rho-Pero, Milan.
The four-day event showcased a revival of classics with pumps and stilettos dominating women's collections alongside boots echoing 1960s biker models.
The skate sneaker re-launched a few seasons ago by Céline's Phoebe Philo is vying to become a new classic, evolving next winter into boots with a predominance of exotic skins playing for contrast with chunky white soles.

Classic brown, grey and burgundy shades were particularly popular for loafers with a slender silhouette, a staple also designed with heels. Calfskin, patent leather, sheepskin as well as exotic skins and prints dominated collections alongside felt and retro-style tweeds and prints.
Men's footwear also indulged in classics with Chelsea and wingtip boots slated to be major hits next winter alongside sneakers.
The sneaker is increasingly conceived to be worn with formalwear - both in minimalist designs echoing classic tennis shoes as well as bolder high-top versions in bright hues including purple and green.
