When you’re fashion obsessed and have the opportunity to talk to an expert about shoes, you always say yes. I recently got to speak with Linda Cui Zhang, the associate fashion director at Nordstrom, about the shoe trends that she thinks will make the strongest impact this season, and she had me taking notes. At the helm of one of the leading platforms in fashion retail, Cui Zhang has a perspective on what to purchase that holds some extra weight.

With her experience curating collections and a finger on the pulse of consumer shopping habits, Zhang knows exactly which trends will define the coming months, and she reported on exactly that. There’s a trend in this story for everyone, so keep scrolling to find your shoe match for fall.
