This season, top designers built their runway looks from the ground up, starting with the statement boot. Earning second glances from fashionistas: over-the-knee styles, striking colors and furry accents from top designers like Off-White, Dior and Chloe.
From saturated color to unconventional materials, the trend is clear: Boots are basic no more.
