They may seem insignificant, but socks are actually a hot topic, especially since Hailey Bieber and Lily-Rose Depp have made them a fashion accessory!
Often overlooked as functional accessories that don’t need to be pretty and that we even try to hide, socks are reclaiming a more significant role thanks to stars who are giving this accessory a prominent place in fashion.
Socks have even become a real trend topic among Gen Z on TikTok and Instagram, so it’s time to talk about them and style your look!
1. Socks: a tool for expression
We often forget them when getting dressed, yet showing off your rolled-up socks with sneakers and a dress, for example, is a real aesthetic choice. Made of wool, cotton, discreet or designed to catch the eye, socks are accessories that hold much more importance than they appear to. You got it, socks are the perfect way to express your personality in a subtle and fashionable way!
2. Key accessory of trends
School girl, tenniscore, or even balletcore, does that ring a bell? Of course, because these are trends that have defined the year.
Do you see where I’m going with this? The trends that have emerged in recent seasons all have in common the emphasis on socks as the final accessory that adds the exact trendy touch to the look. Moreover, socks have the advantage of adapting to the rhythm of the seasons. In cotton, thin, white or pink in summer and spring, they pair perfectly with a balletcore style look. They extend up to the knee in autumn and winter, taking on nature-inspired shades like gray or light brown.
In September, because the weather allows it, I recommend alternating between short and long socks with a school girl look, perfect for celebrating back-to-school!
3. Style all about comfort
Perhaps you remember the time when we would do anything to hide our socks with ultra-short models (not necessarily comfortable) whose purpose was to give the impression that we were barefoot (which is really not ideal for hygiene). Fortunately, I’m happy to say that era is behind us. Why hide an accessory that adds personality to an outfit while being comfortable at the same time?

4. TikTok, Pinterest, and Instagram
If socks are back in the spotlight, it is indeed thanks to Gen Z and their passion for vintage aesthetics, their eco-responsible commitment, and their desire to reinterpret fashion codes. Just take a look at the second-hand site Depop to understand how integral socks are to the look.
Pinterest is full of inspiring ideas to create looks that showcase socks. It’s also the perfect time to match your socks with loafers, platform sandals, or even ballet flats.
Inspiration for looks!
Without going overboard, the school girl look, which I personally love, is one of the best inspirations for choosing pretty white socks and loafers.
Then we see the importance of socks in a look inspired by sports and of course in the tennicore trend, worn by Zendaya. Always ahead of trends, Hailey Bieber also draws inspiration from rugby with a striped polo and flats over a pair of white socks. Lily-Rose Depp adopts a neutral look with white socks that complement soft beige loafers.
