To wear Isabel Marant wedge sneakers well, show the ankle. The shoe hides a 5 cm wedge on the Bekett and Bobby, and a short hem lets that lifted shape read; a long, pooling trouser hides it. Below are eight outfits that work now, with the Bekett, Bobby and Bilsy pairs Coveti holds.
The hem rule
Stop the trouser at the ankle bone, roll a straight jean once, and keep skirt and dress hems above the knee and at the midi length. Wide hems that cover the shoe flatten the line the wedge creates.
Eight outfits
1. Cropped straight jeans and a fine knit
The default, and still the best. A black Bekett in mixed leather with black denim gives one long line.
2. Leather trousers and a white shirt
Ankle-length leather keeps the look sharp. Choose a tonal pair such as Bekett Sneakers in Chocolate and Sand Brown.
3. A short knit dress
Bare legs in spring, opaque tights in winter. The wedge adds height without the stiffness of a heel.
4. A midi slip dress and a denim jacket
The sneaker roughens up the silk. Keep the jacket cropped so the proportions stay balanced.
5. Tailored trousers, cropped
A cropped wool trouser with Bekett Smooth Leather Sneakers in Black reads as office wear.
6. Shorts and a long cardigan
A summer look where the lifted heel lengthens the leg. The perforated suede Bobby in sahara suits warm weather.
7. Two-tone sneaker, neutral outfit
Let a colourful pair be the one point of colour: Bekett Ring Sneakers in Camel and Sahara with ecru denim and a camel coat.
8. A long coat and dark denim
For winter, the new Bekett Ring Sneakers in Faded Black and Chalk with a long wool coat and black jeans.
Which wedge to choose
The Bekett is the classic, with Velcro straps. The Bobby laces up in perforated suede. The Bilsy has a lower 3.5 cm wedge. The full side-by-side is in Bekett vs Beth vs Bobby.
| Outfit | Best model | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Cropped jeans | Bekett | The classic high-top shape suits denim |
| Summer shorts | Bobby | Perforated suede is the lightest upper |
| Office trousers | Bekett Smooth Leather | Smooth calfskin looks cleaner with tailoring |
| Short dress | Bilsy | The lower 3.5 cm wedge |
How we measured: wedge heights, uppers and closures are taken from the Isabel Marant product pages for each model. Colourway counts are the styles Coveti had live and in stock on 7 November 2026. Curated by the Coveti Studio.
Around the world
United States: the jeans-and-knit formula dominates. United Kingdom: wedges with opaque tights and a short skirt carry through the cold months. Europe: cropped tailoring with a black Bekett. Gulf: loose linen trousers cut at the ankle, with a lighter suede pair.
Frequently asked questions
Are wedge sneakers still in style?
Isabel Marant still makes them every season, now in two-tone leathers and new side panels, and worn with short hems they look current.
What trousers go with wedge sneakers?
Trousers that stop at the ankle: cropped straight jeans, ankle-length leather and cropped tailoring.
Can you wear wedge sneakers with a dress?
Yes. A short knit dress and a midi slip dress both work, with bare legs in warm weather and opaque tights in cold.
How high is the Isabel Marant wedge?
5 cm on the Bekett and Bobby and 3.5 cm on the Bilsy, according to Isabel Marant.
