When Brandice Daniel founded Harlem's Fashion Row in 2007, no one in the industry wanted to talk to her, or anyone else, about race. It's now 2020 and, in the wake of the horrific killing of George Floyd by the Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin and his three colleagues, the entire world is discussing the subject. Fashion brands responded with hashtags and empty black boxes on Instagram, some of which were Nike Air Force followed by donations. Fewer and farther between have been actual partnership announcements between BIPOC-owned organizations and industry leaders.

In ELLE.com's 60 Second Style, we spend one minute proving that a single item can be majorly versatile with some unexpected how-to-wear tips.

Slip-on shoes are a simple way to chic up any outfit, so it's kismet that this backless shoe is making big waves this spring. Sleek and minimalist, these dapper mules dip their toes into '90s nostalgia trend while still managing to look super current. Plus, they're practical too. The 2-inch block heel is just the right height to take you from a busy workday through to dinner and drinks. (Or Netflix and chill if that's more your thing.) Fashioned from high quality ECCO leather, these shoes mix function with fashion in a serious way. Their leather lining is guaranteed to keep your feet dry and cozy no matter how many hours you spend in them.

Until 2020 came along nothing Air Force 1 Shoes in its 111-year history had forced Selfridges to shut its doors, except for World War II. Even then, however, the London department store shuttered for only one day in 1940 due to bomb damage. This March 18, before mandatory government edict required it, the management of Selfridges took the decision to turn off the lights. "Going home that day was very emotional, very hard," says Sebastian Manes: "it hit me in the guts."

FTSY (pronounced "footsy") is one of a handful of apps that may address the fit problem. The app, which is currently in early public beta testing, uses your smartphone camera (iPhone 6s or higher) to scan your feet, creates a 3-D profile on them and then recommends footwear brands, styles and sizes Nike Air Force 1 that are most likely to fit.
