Mules are slip-on shoes with no back often featuring a closed toe, worn by both men and women. They come in various styles with high stiletto, low, or chunky heels.
This season, the mule, once associated with older generations, has undergone a modern transformation. Whether it’s a flat adorned with florals, a chunky-heeled mule, or a sleek stiletto version, the revamped mule is a must-have fashion item.
The backless shoe style, which originated in the 16th century, gained popularity in the mid-20th century through the late ’90s, resurging in the late ’90s and early 2000s in the form of open-toed slides. Many designers have refreshed the classic backless shoe to appeal to a younger audience.
