Slingback Ballet Flats for Women

At Steve Madden, slingback ballet flats combine the feminine shape of classic ballet flats with the elegant open-back design of a slingback shoe. A slingback ballet flat is a flat shoe with a covered front and a strap around the heel, creating a lighter silhouette while helping the shoe stay securely in place.

This style offers the comfort of a ballet flat with a more refined, modern finish. Slingback ballet flats are easy to wear for everyday outfits, work looks, summer styling and dressier occasions where you want something polished without choosing heels. Available in timeless shades like black and white, they bring a clean and versatile finish to both casual and elevated outfits.

Why Choose Slingback Ballet Flats?

  • Open-Back Shape: The slingback strap creates a lighter look than a fully closed ballet flat while still offering support around the heel.

  • Flat Comfort: The low, flat silhouette makes slingback ballet flats easy to wear throughout the day.

  • Polished Finish: The covered front and heel strap create a refined look that works well with both simple and dressier outfits.

  • Easy Styling: Black and white slingback ballet flats pair naturally with denim, tailoring, dresses and skirts.

Slingback Ballet Flats by Colour

  • Black Slingback Ballet Flats: Black slingback ballet flats are timeless and versatile, making them easy to style with workwear, evening outfits and everyday looks.

  • White Slingback Ballet Flats: White slingback ballet flats create a fresh, clean finish that works well with lighter outfits, summer styling and occasionwear.

How to Style Slingback Ballet Flats
