Claudia has been nailing her outfits in the brand new series of The Traitors and fans can copy the exact monochrome loafers she wore in the second episode
Claudia Winkleman’s back on the screens with another week of The Traitors and fans are keeping their eyes peeled for her Highland-inspired outfits. In the second episode, the TV host wore a pair of smart penny loafers that she matched it with a velvet jumpsuit – and they’re still available.
According to Country & Town House, it’s believed that Claudia wore the Duke + Dexter Wilde penny loafers, which retail for £240. The black and white panelled footwear is handmade with premium materials including natural Italian leather that shapes to your foot with prolonged wear and a 25mm compounded rubber sole for maximum comfort.
These chic shoes are a great way to smarten up your winter outfits, especially if you prefer flats over heels. The celeb-loved loafers come in UK sizes from three to eight.

Of course, you can style them with a killer jumpsuit like Claudia, who got hers from Sandro (previous seasons) but they look just as good with A-line dresses like this Oddmuse’ The Ultimate Muse Split Sleeve Mini Dress (£135).
They can also be paired with Sandro’s Pleated Crepe Playsuit, which is reduced from £299 to £150, or a top and a mini skirt like New Look’s Brown Woven Heritage Check Skirt, £23.99.
On a budget? There are some affordable alternatives that you can get from high-street brands, making it easier to channel Claudia’s look for less.
Bershka’s Contrast Loafers are designed with flexible latex foam insole to offer greater comfort and it’s been reduced from £35.99 to £15.99. Sizes are available from UK2 to UK8. One shopper praised the comfort after wearing it for long hours while another said it’s need some time to break in.
If you’re looking for a high-end option, you can consider Tory Burch’s Classic Loafers, currently on 50% off at £160. There feature scalloped edges and a gold-coloured metal logo charm on the front.
One loyal fan shared: “They are true to size and the leather is buttery soft, really pleased with the purchase and they go easily with my office outfits. Love it.”
Another also shared the excitement of wearing the Tory Burch loafers: “Got them at half price, they look so much better than online pictures. I have yet to wear them but I wonder if the metal charm will fall off easily.”
Not ready to plunge into the bold monochrome? New Look offers black loafers with metal details and they are available at £35.99.
One customer shared: “Lovely pair of shoes look very smart very comfy however when you first wear them the backs are tough so they did give me blisters.”
Another said the shoes “come up high” for better ankle protection, but one said: “They are very plastic-y look and would not wear well.”
