Princetown Velvet Backless Loafers

Gucci's navy Princetown loafers are an apt representation of the Italian fashion house's penchant for statement details. They're made in Italy with an of-the-moment backless shape that is set on a smalls stacked heel, and features a red leather heart on the insole alongside the signature antiqued gold-tone metal Horsebit plaque. Pick up on the navy-hue with a coordinating sweater for a casual coffee date.
