Mischa Barton donned a pair of slingback pumps to accent a spring 2026 Bora Aksu look at the charity event Mon Chéri Barbara Tag in Munich on Thursday.
Barton opted for a black style with a flared block heel of modest height boosting the set in back and bows adorning the vamp. The silhouette also featured a classic pointed toe and low-cut vamp. The shoes were accompanied by Bora Aksu patterned tights featuring diamonds and linear accents. Barton’s ensemble also included a long, flowy lace dress from Bora Aksu in pastel pink shades with ruffled layers; the dress was adorned with a black bow at the chest which subtly aligned with her footwear.
Slingback heels have once again proved their relevance in 2025. In various iterations, the style has been seen on runways and red carpets alike. From Elizabeth Olsen wearing metallic maroon Paris Texas Lidia slingback pumps featuring a soaring pin-straight heel to Taylor Swift wearing burgundy Gucci Horsebit platform slingback pumps featuring a sky-high block heel, the slingback strap has seen its fair share of celebrity support this year. Slingback heels were particularly trendy at the 2025 Venice Film Festival, with attendees like Heidi Klum and Greta Gerwig showcasing takes on the look.

The slingback look lies somewhere between the more modest classic pump and the more revealing mule heel, which is also quite popular lately — think a minimalist sandal with only a simple toe strap comprising the upper, a barely-there silhouette which a slew of celebrities have modeled in 2025.
