The Must have Women's Shoe for Summer 2012? That'll Be the Welly
- Once the Epitome of 'Anti-Fashion', Now a Fashion Staple -
(firmenpresse) - LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM -- (Marketwire) -- 07/16/12 -- For years on end they were worn solely by rugged country types that lived on farms, kept sheep dogs and drove Land Rovers. And then the early-adopting fashionistas starting teaming them with cut-off denim shorts and vest tops as the noughties festival scene flourished. Today - according to new research by , the humble Wellington Boot is firmly established as a fashion staple as young British women have worn them more frequently than , sandals and trainers so far this summer.
No doubt partly forced into regular welly-wearing by the ongoing inclement summer weather, young British women have also been influenced by celebs such as Kate Moss, Keira Knightley and Alexa Chung donning the 'rubber rain boots' as part of trendy day-time outfits. Going to show just how much perceptions have changed, 57% said they're happy to wear on their morning commutes to work and 68% said there's absolutely no shame whatsoever in stepping out in the city in a pair.
Julie Donnelly, Very.co.uk Head of Womenswear said, 'Now day's wellies are much more versatile, they come in different lengths, colours, prints and styles so there is something to suit everyone.'
