GettyStyle Notes: Originally released in 2010, Valentino's rockstud heels have been a favourite for some time. Spotted on J.Lo earlier this year, the heels have miraculously managed to maintain their popularity for the better part of a decade.

GettyStyle Notes: While most will remember the Prada flame heel as a standout from only a few seasons ago, the shoes were actually originally released in 2012. Miuccia Prada re-designed the statement shoes as a part of the brand's A/W 18 collection, but fashion veterans such as Anna Dello Russo (pictured) first wore the heels around six years earlier.

GettyStyle Notes: Originally released in A/W 14, Stella McCartney's Star Elyse Platforms gained an almost cult-like status seen on both celebrities and the street style set.

GettyStyle Notes: Released by former creative director Nicolas Ghesquière in 2011, Balenciaga's chunky Ceinture ankle boots became a fast favourite. The shoes are still available to purchase to this day, but were a sellout in the year they launched after being spotted on pop-sensation Rihanna.

GettyStyle Notes: Originally released in 2008, Chloé's Susanna Boots garnered the attention of style stars including Sienna Miller and Kate Bosworth. The brand re-released the shoes in 2012 and surprisingly, they were just as coveted four years later.

GettyStyle Notes: Instantly recognisable thanks to the mismatched ribbon detail, Miu Miu's ballerina flats were undoutedly the breakout star of the brand's S/S 16 collection.

GettyStyle Notes: When Alessandro Michele took the helm of Gucci in 2015, he debuted many statement accessories, though nothing took off quite like the fur-lined loafer. The shoes—a reimagined version of the brand's classic horse-bit loafer—became a must-have amongst in-the-know editors, and was ubiquitous in the offices of major publications.

GettyStyle Notes: While initially the brainchild of Coco Chanel, designed over 60 years ago, the Chanel slingback has been a staple for quite some time. The perennially popular shoes encountered a resurgence in 2015 when Karl Lagerfeld debuted a reimagined version on the A/W runway.

GettyStyle Notes: Named after famed tennis player Stan Smith, this Adidas sneaker was first launched in 1963, but only really gained the attention of the fashion industry upon its re-release in 2014.

GettyStyle Notes: Released in 2017, the Balenciaga Triple S sneaker was the buzzy follow up to the brand's already popular Speed Trainer. Designed by Demna Gvasalia, the shoes became the epitome of the year's dad sneaker trend.

GettyStyle Notes: Call it the Daniel Lee effect, but since the designer took the reins at Bottega Veneta the brand has become a bonafide street style favourite. From the pouch bag to the square-toe sandals, this year, the designer's pieces were just about everywhere.
