Spanish singer Aitana has taken a holiday to Thailand following a long concert season, wearing a pair of sold-out Chloé raffia sandals worth nearly 500 euros.
The pop star, who traveled to the Southeast Asian nation alongside content creator Plex, shared glimpses of her vacation wardrobe with followers on social media during her break from performing.
Among the items packed in her suitcase, her footwear stood out as a key fashion focus. Aitana chose luxury sandals priced at almost 500 euros from French fashion house Chloé, a design that has become one of the season's most sought-after accessories and is virtually sold out across retailers.
Chloé raffia sandal design and details
The sandals elevate a traditional summer material by incorporating natural woven raffia across both the sole and the heel. The design features a broad, handcrafted-style strap over the foot along with a thong toe post.
Unlike conventional flat vacation sandals made from natural fibers, the Chloé pair incorporates a wide, mid-height block heel. The structure adds height while maintaining a relaxed, comfortable aesthetic suitable for summer travel.
The footwear reflects a broader movement across luxury fashion over recent seasons, where natural textures such as raffia and crochet have expanded beyond traditional beach baskets and sun hats into formal accessories and heeled footwear.
Aitana styling and vacation wardrobe
Rather than reserving the luxury heels for evening occasions or formal dinners, Aitana styled the sandals for a casual daytime excursion. She paired them with short khaki shorts designed for warm-weather travel and a white wrap top that added fluid movement to the silhouette.
By avoiding large accessories or competing statement pieces, the singer allowed the raffia sandals to elevate two basic wardrobe essentials. Fashion observers noted that the versatility of the footwear explains its popularity, as the design transitions easily from holiday wear to urban summer styling.
The Chloé sandals join other highlighted pieces from Aitana's getaway wardrobe, including a 740-euro vacation dress packed for her trip to Thailand and a 95-euro Adidas tracksuit selected for her return to gym routines in September.
Background on Aitana and luxury summer trends
Aitana Ocaña, known professionally as Aitana, is one of Spain's most successful pop artists, having built a major music career following her rise to fame on the reality singing competition Operación Triunfo in 2017. Her style choices frequently attract attention from fashion publications and social media followers.
Chloé, founded in Paris in 1952 by Gaby Aghion, is celebrated for its bohemian luxury aesthetic and reliance on natural materials. Raffia, derived from the leaves of the raffia palm, has long been a staple of Mediterranean summer style, prized for its durability and distinctive woven texture.
