It’s officially flip-flop season, and whilst my Instagram feed is awash with stylish women wearing everything from Havaianas and Bobbies to The Row’s now-iconic Dune sandals, there’s one pair I keep spotting above all the rest: Ancient Greek Sandals’ Saionara Jelly flip-flops. This season, it’s the glossy red pair in particular that’s quietly reached cult status.
In many ways, they feel like the natural successor to The Row’s now-iconic Dune flip-flops, which sparked fashion’s obsession with elevated thong sandals and, more recently, unexpected pops of red. The Saionaras capture that same understated appeal, but with a softer, more playful sensibility. Crafted from translucent PVC, they catch the light in a way that almost resembles glass, bringing subtle texture and interest to even the simplest outfit.
What I love most, though, is their versatility. They look just as at home styled with linen trousers and oversized shirts as they do with cotton poplin dresses, Bermuda shorts or a slinky black skirt for dinner. Equal parts nostalgic and directional, they’re the sort of sandals that quietly pull an outfit together without ever competing for attention.
Keep scrolling to shop the cult style, along with the other flip-flops fashion people are backing this season.
