The best loafers offer a style solution for those who want to ditch heels in favour of a comfortable shoe that still looks smart. The timeless loafer is a capsule wardrobe favourite and for good reason, thanks to its versatility and its ability to effortlessly elevate any look.
While classic women's loafers will always be a solid investment, there are plenty of interesting twists on the traditional style if you want to add an edge to your wardrobe. From chunky loafers to flatforms and simple patent styles to suede options, there's something for every style, budget and occasion.
Best of all, you can wear loafers with practically anything. Add an edge to your floral midi dress with a chunky style, or opt for a printed pair of loafers to add interest to your office look. On the weekend, team your loafers with jeans and knitwear and for an evening out swap in a pair of tailored trousers and a blazer. The styling options are endless.
Our edit of the best women's loafers include top picks from Marks & Spencer, Clarks, Boden and John Lewis. Get ready to meet your new staple shoe, that will take you from work-to-weekend.
