In milder weather and for a touch of elegance, shelve your winter boots and chunkier shoes and opt for a pretty pair of ballet pumps. These are the quintessential women’s flat shoe.

Read on, and we'll tell you all there is to know about them.

What are women's ballet pumps and how should you wear and style them for maximum impact?

As their name suggests, ballet pumps (also known as dolly shoes or ballerina flats) first appeared with ballet dancing in the 18th century before becoming a firm favourite among girls and women off the stage. Ballet pumps are a slim, elegant style of shoe that has the advantage of bringing delicacy and femininity to any look, without the need for platform soles or high heels. All this makes ballerina flats extraordinarily versatile! For a relaxed, low-key look, a simple pair of leather or suede ballet pumps are great to slip on with your favourite pair of blue jeans, a tunic or a loose blouse. For work, a black or navy pair is perfect for smarter combinations and, thanks to the fact they offer greater comfort than heels and standard smart shoes, they’re sure to see you through the entire working day! For special occasions, choose a pair of ballet pumps that have a little extra something about them! Our beautiful openwork leather models are available in a number of spectacular styles and colours, making them the perfect match for all your best dresses. Style and comfort really do go hand in hand with this choice of ladies’ footwear!

From ladies' black or brown leather pumps to patent styles with a slight heel, or ballet slippers in white, gold, tan, pink or navy... Enjoy soft, flexible comfort all through the mid-season!

An elegant and simplistic form of footwear – where less is definitely more – the shape of ballet pumps in some ways offers a blank canvas, leaving room for a wide range of styles and colours. If you're struggling to choose the right pair for you, let us help! To start, make sure you have a dark, neutral pair in your closet that you can pair with anything. Simple black, navy and brown ballet pumps may not dazzle your entourage, but they're a life-saver when your standard shoes and boots just won't do. For more neutral outfits, a pair of white or pastel ballerina flats are ideal, and a bit of fancy openwork leather can really lift a faded pair of jeans. For the outgoing type, there are plenty of bright colours and special styles that will really make an impact. So now you know, browse our selection and get the perfect pair of ballet pumps delivered right to your door!
