Hailey Bieber Revived This Controversial 2010s Shoe Trend — See Photos

Hailey Bieber loves a good fashion moment. Her street style over the years has evolved making her one to follow when building out your closet. The 28-year-old recently stepped out in New York City leaving Cafe Zaffri wearing clear, see-through heels — a shoe moment straight from the 2010 archives. Bieber paired the transparent heels with a powder blue mini dress, black sunglasses, and her stunning diamond ring (courtesy of husband Justin Bieber).

The look is a direct nod to the transparent shoe craze made famous in the early 2000s by brands like Gianvito Rossi — amongst many others. The popular shoes have always been seen as high-fashion, but also high-maintenance with its tendency to fog up if you're walking for far too long. Some celebrities who've previously tapped into the see-through heels trend over the years include family friends like Kim and Khloe Kardashian. More recently, designer Amina Muaddi has popularized the shoe again. Bieber is in fact wearing a pair of Gianvito Rossi, choosing to tap into the originators of this popular shoe style. While the trend in the early 2000s leaned a bit more eclectic, Bieber's look is definitely more polished — leaning into her very “girl-next-door” style of dressing. Her use of the clear heels leans more minimal, really letting the shoes be the star of the look.

Hailey Bieber is often the one leaning into trends from the past, so it's fun to see her tap into styles that feel a bit far removed from her personal aesthetic. And we can't help but wonder if she's in New York City a few days early preparing for Met Gala 2025? We will know for sure if she'll be attending in a few days and if so, we can't wait to see what she's wearing.
