This year’s love of boho, 90s styling and a certain film featuring Mr Grey has created the perfect storm for the return of the lace up trend.

There has already been hints of it over the summer but it will arrive with full effect for the autumn with black the favoured shade.

It can be devastatingly sexy in clothing as it allows you to show off a deep swoop of cleavage while still keeping everything in place.

And in shoes it somehow combines schoolgirl innocence, secretary chic and dominatrix confidence all at once.
