Battle of the ballet pump


It’s the trend that won’t die. The ubiquitous ballet pump continues to reign. French Sole is launching a new range of pumps for the size 8+ brigade (of which there are many. Why won’t the high street address this?) and Pretty Ballerinas recently opened a shop in Brook Street (but you’re advised NOT to visit on a Saturday, it’s smaller than a shoe box!). Finally, ballet pump connoiseurs’ favourite, Repetto has hooked up with Comme des Garcons to create the ultimate pretty-punk hybrid – silver-studded ballet pumps. Whatever next?
