Three colors, each expressing a different kind of French romance

The new collection comes in three colors, each with its own appeal. For those who love timeless classics, black is undoubtedly the most dependable choice for your closet: understated and easy to style. If you prefer a soft, intellectual look, the off-white pair blends perfectly with light-colored summer outfits for an elegant, polished effect. If you’d like to add some interest to an ordinary day, the vivid, saturated red pair will instantly become the focal point of your look.

The LV metal buckle that completes the look

Beyond the lace, the slim strap across the upper is another focal point. Unlike the minimalist design of traditional ballet flats, the Romy features a tonal patent-leather strap finished with the signature LV metal buckle. Like a finishing piece of jewelry, this small metal detail brings a crisp, modern touch to the shoe’s soft lace foundation.

It keeps feet from feeling stuffy in summer while adding something extra to an outfit. If you’re looking for a pair that can see you through the long summer and strike the perfect balance between comfort and style, visit a store to try them on and experience the appeal of these flats, considered the height of elegance.
