Polka dot satin upper with a light-catching finish that gives the print a subtle sheen rather than a flat, matte look Ruched strap across the vamp adds gathered texture, breaking up the print with a tactile, dimensional detail Metal buckle fastening on the strap - adjustable and decorative in equal measure Pointed toe that elongates the foot without the discomfort of a heel Flat sole with a heel height between 0 and 2cm, built for all-day wear without compromise The ruched strap is what sets these apart from a standard ballet flat - it sits across the foot with a gathered softness that makes the buckle feel considered rather than tacked on. The polka dot satin catches light differently depending on the angle, so they read as more dressed-up than a plain flat would. That tension between the print's retro charm and the structured metal hardware is what makes them so easy to style across different looks. Pair them with a midi skirt and a fitted knit for a put-together daytime outfit, or wear them with wide-leg trousers and a simple blouse when you want the shoes to do the talking. They work just as well tucked under a tea dress at a family gathering as they do with tailored separates for a casual lunch out. A flat that actually has something to say. | Dorothy Perkins Women's Faith: Mila Polka Dot Satin Buckle Ruched Ballet Flats in Mono | Size: 4
