Let\u2019s face it, fashion can get pretty ugly. Remember the days when you used to watch F.R.I.E.N.D.S and wince at their hideous jeans? Well, step aside mom jeans. It\u2019s time to make way for this season\u2019s biggest and ugliest footwear trend \u2014 dad sneaker trainers. Chunky shoes and flatforms in general have been stylish for a while, but since Balenciaga sold out their entire range of Triple S trainers in less then an hour, it\u2019s safe to say that dad sneaker trainers have really taken off. Face it, they’re fabulous.\u00a0Worn on the street by the likes of Lisa Hahnbueck and Kendall Jenner, dad trainers are\u00a0big, textured and totally 90s. And of course, they\u2019re lowkey hideous, but couldn\u2019t be more on trend. Here\u2019s some tips for how to rock them.<\/p>\n

1) Athleisure<\/h2>\n

Pair dad trainers with a cropped sweatshirt and high-waisted trousers for a sharp and sporty look.<\/p>\n

Get The Look:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

<\/a>2) Classy, yet edgy<\/h2>\n

Combining black dad trainers with high-waisted paper bag trousers, a black top and chic tan trenchcoat gives this classy outfit unexpected edge.<\/p>\n

Get The Look:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

<\/a>3) Go mono<\/h2>\n

Wear a head-to-toe neutral like black or white, then add a pop of colour with a statement pair of dad trainers. Go on, she who dares wins!<\/p>\n

<\/h2>\n

Get The Look:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

4) 70s<\/h2>\n

So. Retro. Although the combination of bright yellow turtleneck with double denim adds a definite 70s vibe to the outfit, the minimalist white dad trainer keeps things cool and contemporary.<\/p>\n

Get The Look:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

<\/a>5) Ballgown<\/h2>\n

Ditch the heels, or donate them to your grandmother! Offsetting a superfeminine dress and chandelier earrings with huge clunky dad trainers has never been more cool.<\/p>\n

Get The Look:<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n
