We're all going to be wearing socks with sandals this season, here's how to do it in style...
The fashion world's fascination with ugly footwear has been gathering pace over the last few years, from dad trainers to bedazzled Crocs, and it's showing no sign of slowing down.
With the industry now focussed on another incarnation - one often favoured by toddlers and the elderly - it's time for those of you with ugly-footwear-phobia to look away pronto.
What are we all wearing on our hooves this season?
Welcome: the sock-sandal combo.
Once considered an excruciating fashion faux pas, the style crowd has now reflected its desire to always remain rebellious by dubbing the controversial look so-wrong-it's-right.
As such, models were storming the catwalks all over the globe this season donning the look, including those for Erdem (below), Gucci, Marc Jacobs and Miu Miu.

If you're Kendall Jenner, it's worn on the Cannes Film Festival red carpet with one of the the most beautiful Giambattista Valli gowns we've seen in recent seasons.
If you're not a multi-million-dollar-earning model and reality TV star, then you should probably look to the street style set for inspo.
