Footwear
Mary Janes are low-cut shoes defined by one or more straps across the top of the foot, secured with a buckle or button. Originally a children's style, they're now a wardrobe staple in flat, kitten, and block-heel versions — a rounded-toe, slightly retro shoe that pairs well with dresses, skirts, and trousers.
The strap is the defining feature, holding the shoe securely and giving a sweet, schoolgirl-meets-vintage look. Modern versions update the shape with platforms, chunky heels, or pointed toes.
Mary Janes share the feminine, flat-shoe space with ballet flats, and feature heavily in cottagecore, preppy, and Y2K-inspired styling.
