For the biggest event for Muslims all across the globe, Eid-ul-Fitr, we want everything to be perfect. From our hair, to clothes, to footwear.
Shoes are a major part of one’s outfit and look. Most people buy footwear that match their clothes; others buy clothes that match their footwear.
Girls have a lot of variety in the kinds of footwear they can mix and match with their clothes. Slippers, flip flops, stilettos, platform heels, ballet flats, strappy sandals, boots…almost all kinds of footwear are available according to the type of style you want to pull off.
On Eid, most girls prefer looking posh and stylish. To go with their gorgeous kameezes they most often choose stilettos. But nowadays ballet flats and flat sandals are making their way through the fashion world fast and strong.
Ballet flats can go with almost all kinds of attire. You can wear them with, kameezes and casual jeans and tees.
Bata established the new trend of comfortable rubber ballet flats that are found in almost every colour to go with any outfit. Although the sandals are made merely for comfort, they pull off an extremely stylish look too.
Flat slippers have been the ‘in’ thing amongst footwear for a very long time now and they’re not anywhere near ready to go ‘out of fashion’ anytime soon.
Flat slippers used to be worn widely with kameezes, dresses, skirts, jeans and now they’re worn with saris too. Flat sandals are now available anywhere around Dhaka.
Every shoe store will present you with an ample collection of flat slippers. Now, in malls like Metro, you can get these flat slippers in stores that don’t even sell shoes.
Stilettos give you a very posh and sassy look. Most girls prefer stilettos for events as big as an Eid bash, classy weddings and trendy parties. The most probable reason for girls to opt for stilettos for such occasions is that stilettos give an optical illusion of longer legs, smaller feet and a greater overall height.
They also alter a wearer’s posture and gait by flexing the calf muscles and helping to straighten the backbone. A lot of people choose comfort over fashion, but when it comes to looking elegant, sophisticated and trendy at the same time, a pair ofstilettos will do the trick for you.
Strappy sandals are a must-have in every girl’s collection of shoes, whether they have a shoe fetish or not. To be a little more specific, these sandals have straps that go as far up as your calves.
You can get strappy sandals that are flat, with kitten heels or with high heels-whatever suits you best. This particular pair of sandals are bound to give you a more chic look and make you feel beautiful at the same time. They are perfect to wear with a posh Eid kameez and Patiala pyjamas!
For men, sandal shoes are very common during Eid. The trick that sandal shoes play is that they look good with a pair of jeans and they look just as pleasing with panjabi and pyjama. To get good pairs of sandal shoes, the store for you to go to is Bata. Apart from Bata there’s Apex, where it might get a little pricey but once you purchase a pair of their leather sandal shoes you’ll know it was all worth it!
Men also love flat sandals. Of course, their flats have a more masculine look and don’t have glitters, straps and so on, but they’re just as trendy and fashionable. Flat sandals for men serve the same purpose as the ones for women. They go with anything apart from formal apparels.
Jenny’s section for men can give you a good deal on men’s flats and they don’t just add trend to your outfit but they’ll serve you for a very, very long time too! Bata, Apex, and stores in Elephant road will give you good offers on flat slippers too.
Kolapuri sandals have been one of the most common for men’s footwear. They give off a very ethnic yet very deshi look. Kolapuri sandals usually have eastern ethnic designs on the straps that give you a very Asian feel.
Kolapuri sandals recently made their way through to women’s fashion as well. Now women not only wear panjabis but also wear good looking pair of kolapuris to look the part! The best kolapuris can be found in the stores of Elephant road and the market in Gulshan 2. They serve their exact purpose of giving you the deshi look you want and are comfortable to wear.
Nagras are also something that men and women both own. Nagras don’t just make you look fashionable; they tend to give you more of a royal look.
A big part of our subcontinental history has to do with Mughals and even back then they were fashionable and trendy! One of the main things that made them look their part was nagras. Yes, they date back to the 1600s!
Rakhi Shoes on Elephant Road is a store that sells good pairs of nagras. Apart from that, Bashundhara City and Rifles Square have countless shoe stores that offer nagras. These shoes are great for big occasions and sometimes go perfectly with Eid apparels.
Now, for people who don’t like dressing up too much and prefer to buy a new pair of jeans and a brand new trendy shirt or t-shirt for Eid, you would definitely want something strikingly fashionable and yet very cool and suave to go with your outfit.
Girls and boys, what you’re looking for is a pair of converse or vans shoes! I know people who literally treasure their pairs of vans or converse. They go well with skinny jeans, baggy jeans, straight cut pants, whatever it is! They give you a very cool yet trendy look and are perfect for people who like keeping things simple and chilled out.
You’ll get good pairs of converse or vans in stores around Elephant Road. A lot of stores in big malls will have what you want as well. Pick your kind to suit your style and make your feet look as fabulous as the rest of you for Eid!
