For many, summer is the perfect time to pull all your flowing dresses out of the closet. However, SofÃa Vergara has shown that more tight-fitting models can also shine, as long as they are worn in the right way. How? With platform sneakers to elevate the outfit in more ways than one.
The Emmy-nominated Colombian actor was recently at the movies with her boyfriend, Justin Saliman. For such a special moment, she set aside her usual glamorous looks for a more relaxed, yet sensual, bodycon dress. The sleeveless gray midi dress may look simple, but when you look closely at the fit, it is easy to understand why the garment is in Sofia Vergara’s closet.
However, it should be noted that one of the reasons why the look is a successâbesides the sweatshirt casually tied around her waistâis because of the choice of footwear. You can see the photos here.
Vergara’s white wedge sneakers help to give the look an elevated, nostalgic touchâsomething that has also been demonstrated on the Spring-Summer 2024 runways of Casablanca, Gucci, and Ashish, where this shoe was paired with leggings, mini-dresses, and chrome skirts. Vergara has previously worn them with jeans.
Just like in the 2010s, SofÃa Vergara’s Puma Cali sneakers have a platform wedge sole. If you have a good memory, there was no one who could resist Isabel Marant’s wedge sneakers in 2011, though wedges have become more divisive as the years go by. In recent months, Vergara has been in charge of combining this kind of footwear with a variety of looks, proving any outing is an excuse to give wedges sneakers and sandals another shot.
