These 90s sandals have a 430-person waiting list


It's nearly time to dust off your summer wardrobe, and I've got the perfect pair of shoes to go with it. Introducing Dune's chunky sandal LONGISLAND, which will soon be back in stock and has garnered a 430-person strong waiting list in just one week.
Tapping into nineties nostalgia, the platform thing sandal originally launched in early March and promptly sold out after being spotted on the well-clad feet of influencers such as Rita Margari and Shelley Mokoena (both pictured below).
It's a versatile investment which was mega popular last season thanks to designer styles by The Row and Jacquemus, and it's a trend that's here to stay.
The subtle square toe, padded footbed and soft leather straps make it the perfect sandal for any occasion this summer, and will look chic whether paired with a billowy summer dress or a chic linen suit.
The sandals retail at £90 and will be back in stock on Monday 12th April, so make sure you set your alarms because I predict another sell-out.

Penny Goldstone is the Digital Fashion Editor at Marie Claire, covering everything from catwalk trends to royal fashion and the latest high street and Instagram must-haves.
Penny grew up in France and studied languages and law at the Sorbonne Nouvelle University in Paris before moving to the UK for her MA in multimedia journalism at Bournemouth University. She moved to the UK permanently and has never looked back (though she does go back regularly to stock up on cheese and wine).
Although she's always loved fashion - she used to create scrapbooks of her favourite trends and looks, including Sienna Miller and Kate Moss' boho phase - her first job was at MoneySavingExpert.com, sourcing the best deals for everything from restaurants to designer sales.
However she quit after two years to follow her true passion, fashion journalism, and after many years of internships and freelance stints at magazines including Red, Cosmopolitan, Stylist and Good Housekeeping, landed her dream job as the Digital Fashion Editor at Marie Claire UK.
Her favourite part of the job is discovering new brands and meeting designers, and travelling the world to attend events and fashion shows. Seeing her first Chanel runway IRL at Paris Fashion Week was a true pinch-me moment.
