Six of the Best
Lace-up gladiator, £15 by Topshop
This hip little sandal requires legs that are long, tanned and lean. If yours are any thicker than a Pepperami don't go there (that chunky calf flesh will squeeze through the gaps, ew…). Assuming you do have the limbs of a gazelle, show them off in something very short and very sassy. Perfect festival footwear.Available from: Topshop

Less of a commitment is D&G's classic rope design or Etro's fringed version. Not only is the gladiator supremely comfy but it's perfect for adding a shot of edgy Spartacus chic to the season's frockery, floaty tea dresses, shorts, denims, tunics and kaftans. Veni, vidi, vici…This feature was published in May 2008.
