The Shoe of the Summer 2025: Rachel Simpson’s Margot in Scarlet Suede
This isn’t just a wedding shoe. This is the shoe. The one that glides effortlessly from aisle to Aperol, from rooftop drinks to European escapes, from love stories to long lunches. The Rachel Simpson Margot in red-hot scarlet suede is the bold, bow-wrapped answer to everything we’ve ever wanted from a summer heel—comfort, statement, elegance, and wear-it-again magic.
Crafted in signature Rachel Simpson style—where heritage meets high-fashion—the Margot fuses vintage romance with 2025’s most coveted details. Think: the return of red, the bow takeover, and silhouettes that let you dance until the last guest leaves (and still not take them off).
Why Rachel Simpson’s Margot Is the Shoe You’ll Wear All Summer
1. Not Just for Brides—Made for Every Summer Moment
Yes, they’d be iconic under a wedding dress. But Margot is just as perfect for wedding guests, garden parties, city breaks, or simply elevating your airport-to-dinner look. You’ll wear them to the ceremony, and again at cocktails in Capri. They’re the versatile low heel you didn’t know your wardrobe was missing.
2. Comfort That Feels Custom
Soft red suede, cushioned soles, and a wearable block heel mean no blisters, no breaking in, no regrets. They’re feather-light and blissfully wearable—for the girls who’ve sworn off heels and the ones who just want a chic, comfy break from stilettos. I personally wore them around Liverpool’s Festival Gardens for a full day shoot—and not once did I need to take them off. Zero rubbing, just compliments.
3. The Bow Trend, Perfected
Bows are everywhere this year—from ballet flats to bags to beauty looks. And Margot delivers the best version of the trend: sculptural, not sugary. The oversized knot is flattering, flirty, and gives serious editorial energy without losing its polish. Styled with a red polka dot dress, my vintage camera bag, and retro curls, it gave playful retro-glam without trying too hard.
4. The Red Revival
Scarlet is having a full-scale fashion renaissance, and Margot nails the tone. Not cherry, not burgundy—this is the kind of rich red that turns linen into luxury and makes neutrals sing. A pop of red on the feet is the 2025 way to do colour, and Margot’s scarlet is summer in shoe form.
5. The Destination Essential
Made for palm-lined promenades, sunset dinners, and stepping out of a vintage convertible. They pack beautifully, pair with everything, and photograph like a dream. Whether you’re in Mykonos or Margate, Festival Gardens or Florence—these are the heels that work as hard as you play.
Why We Trust the Margot
Rachel Simpson’s designs have long been loved for combining comfort with couture. With over a decade of bridal and occasionwear expertise, this brand knows how to craft shoes that look as good as they feel. The Margot is no exception.
Having personally styled and worn these heels through the gardens of Liverpool and beyond, I can say with confidence: this shoe isn’t just photogenic—it performs. Whether standing for hours, wandering through floral-lined paths, or dancing on polished floors, it didn’t pinch, slip, or tire out my feet.
As a fashion content creator who’s worked with dozens of global shoe and style houses since 2014, I know the difference between “pretty” and truly wearable. The Margot falls into that rare, golden category where style and practicality finally agree. It’s a shoe you’ll wear because you want to—not because you feel you should.
Where It Belongs in 2025 Fashion
