Founder of intimate care brand Wumi Naj Harfouch lives in the fast lane, shuttling between Paris and Dubai. Ballet flats’ effortless slip-on-and-go appeal has made them a staple for her. “Ballet flats are an essential in my rotation at the moment,” she added. “As an active entrepreneur, I want to look chic and at ease while still giving feminine energy out and about in the city.” Ballerinas are also an everyday alternative to sneakers for her. “If I’m popping out to the grocery store and can’t be bothered to tie my laces, I’ve mixed ballerinas with wide jeans and hoodies to give it a little zhuzh too!”

STAYING HOME
“Ever since COVID and lockdowns, we’ve wanted to upgrade the slouchy look with a little bit more of an effort. It’s giving clean and serious yet romantic.”
WINTER ESSENTIAL
“When the weather gets chilly, I like to pair my ballet flats with velvet pants and a structured long coat with a sweater underneath. It breaks up the preppy look with a more grungey aesthetic we see in London.”
GOING OUT
“I’ve worn my ballet flats after the gym, went straight to dinner, got convinced to go to a party, then put it back in my bag the next morning while travelling for a meeting. Ballerinas are perfect for the life of a modern woman!”
