When it comes to accessory trends, many carry over between shoes and handbags, and while we’ve been talking about chunky chain bags for a while now, we’ve yet to touch on the fact that this hot trend also applies to shoes as well. Largely popularized by Daniel Lee and Bottega Veneta after the introduction of chunky chain bags into the BV lineup, a chain revolution of sorts began, with more and more bags from both contemporary brands to premium designers alike popping up.
Last fall and winter the trend transcended beyond the bag world and was spotted on chunky loafers, stilettos, booties and beyond. Now for spring and summer, we’re seeing an influx of shoes from a slew of different designers who are giving new life to the chain game and bringing your summer sandals to the next level.

Is it just me that thinks the chains look cheap?
My husband just called the Louis Vuitton shoes…baller Jesus sandals.
Gotta love it.
Sounds like he has some great fashion commentary!
I like the chunky chain detail in most of these sandals. My favorite is Jeffrey Campbell Mr Big Chain Sandal; it’s pretty!
