The Pretty Flat Shoe Quietly Replacing Sneakers in Madrid and Milan

The pretty flat is having a moment in Madrid and Milan, quietly taking the place of the sneaker in a wardrobe that no longer wants to shout. I understand the impulse. I already own three pairs, and each one feels less like a purchase and more like a return to something softer. There is a particular poise in a shoe that asks nothing of you.
