We’re only on Day Three of Tokyo Fashion Week 2018, but in that short time, one thing became very clear about this season’s street style — it’s all about the platforms.
From brogues and boots to sneakers and hybrids, the heightened style is simply ubiquitous. And while the sole may vary, from low-key to sky-high, any semblance of a platform undoubtedly amps up any look. Scroll down to check out one of the biggest shoe trends from the streets of Tokyo right now.
Sturdy-looking leather platform shoes courtesy of Louis Vuitton stood out, worn with monogrammed Gucci socks. Featuring espadrille material, stud detailing and ropelike laces, the style almost has a creeper feel to it.

A pair of black shiny patent leather lace-up brogues boasting a multicolored platform sole from Zara made waves.
Meanwhile, black leather Wego sneakers with a sky-high rainbow platform and white side stripes caused heads to turn.
A high-heeled black satin style courtesy of Jeffrey Campbell felt reminiscent of boots that legendary rock star David Bowie might have worn.
Adding more color to the streets, a glitter-covered ankle-strap platform by Bopper sparkled with every step.
