The footwear is the French brand’s Spikita Strap style. The straps feature spiked studs all over them as they crisscross over the foot. The silhouette includes a slingback style.

In this way, the shoe combines multiple current trends. The colorway gives a nod to the Charli XCX-inspired Brat trend that is largely centered around the color green. Finding its origins in the album art for the namesake project, the Brat trend has seen people create memes, don garments, and overlay visuals all in the same hue. In addition, slingbacks have been trending all year turning up at the Cannes Film Festival and on red carpets internationally. Slingbacks are also tangential to another trending silhouette style: the strappy sandal. Though not al slingbacks are sandals, recently multiple celebs have been wearing strappy sandals that include a slingback design.
