The latest series of The Traitors continues to deliver high-stakes drama, but host Claudia Winkleman is providing a masterclass in style that's equally compelling. Her standout wardrobe moment from the show's sixth episode has sparked a shopping frenzy, particularly for one key item now available at a significant discount.
The Must-Have Loafers That Stole the Show
In the episode, Claudia paired a chic striped jumper from COS with tailored crop trousers from Me + Em. However, it was her footwear that truly captured the audience's attention. She wore the Wilde Black and White Vegan Penny Loafers by British brand Duke and Dexter, a bold choice that perfectly balanced her otherwise understated ensemble.
The presenter was so enamoured with the shoes she hailed them the "Best shoes on Earth" in an Instagram post promoting the episode. Fans quickly echoed her enthusiasm, with one commenting the loafers were a "must have" and another predicting a sales boom for the brand.
Where to Find the £100 Saving
The good news for style-conscious viewers is that these statement shoes are currently on sale. Originally retailing for £250, they have been reduced to £150, representing a substantial saving of £100.
Shoppers can find the discounted loafers directly on the Duke and Dexter website, though stock is limited to sizes three, four, and five. For a wider size range, retailer END. also has them for £150, with sizes three to eight available and only size six currently sold out.
A closer inspection reveals a playful detail true to the show's theme: the tongue of each shoe is emblazoned with the words "Faithful" and "Traitor".
Alternative Styles and Budget-Friendly Options
While the specific 'Faithful/Traitor' design is not customisable, Duke and Dexter offers other printed vegan penny loafer designs, such as cherries or kiss prints, for £270.
For those seeking a similar look on a smaller budget, several high-street alternatives are also on sale. Clark's Straven Edge Leather Loafers feature a contrasting white tongue and are now half price at £45, down from £90. Meanwhile, Dr. Martens' Penton Heart Two-Tone Patent Leather Loafers are also 50% off, reduced from £150 to £75 and available in all sizes.
Claudia Winkleman's fashion choices on The Traitors consistently generate buzz, proving that even amidst deception, great style remains faithfully reliable.
