Aside from the ones I have mentioned above, there are other girly styles that you can check out. I have listed all 13 of them in this article so you don't have to stress yourself by comparing them using different tabs.
Let's start!
Dr. Martens Devon Heart Leather Platform Boots
Devon Heart Leather Platform Boots is one of Dr. Martens bestsellers! It has a towering platform sole and it is made of milled Nappa leather— you can bank on its durability, plus it feels supple and soft to the feet even on the first wear.
In fact, most people claim that it isn't hard to break into these boots. They're very comfortable even right out of the box.
The main feature that makes the Devon heart very feminine is the heart-shaped buckles attached to the woven straps. This pair of boots also come in black, pink, and white colors, so the buckles really stand out.
In addition, it has a padded tongue and quarters so you wouldn't have blisters after hours of wearing it. Just like most classic Docs, the Devon is also Goodyear-welted, heat-sealed, and stitched using the iconic yellow thread.
Dr. Martens Women's Leona 7 Hook Boots
Just one look at these rugged boots and you'll surely fall in love. Leona Women's Vintage Smooth Leather Heeled Boots combines a rebellious style with a feminine touch so it really looks classy but intimidating.
It uses Vintage Smooth which is a retro version of DM's smooth leather, so you'll see a subtle grain effect and a contrasting base color.
Moreover, it has a sleek silhouette and antique-looking brass tunnel eyelets. Every detail of the Leona is empowering to its wearer.
Similar to other DM boots, this uses an Airwair air-cushioned sole that is made extra towering, grooved sides, visible yellow stitching, and a scripted heel-loop.
The sole is also of high quality— it is slip, oil, and fat resistant. Plus, it has superior abrasion.
The 1460 Vonda shouts feminine all over. Right off the bat, you'll see that it has embroidered rose details that run on the side of the boot. This is actually Dr. Martens iconic 1460 boots but it is inspired by the 14-eye 1914 Vonda.
Dr. Martens Women's 1460 Vonda Softy T Fashion Boots
Unlike other classic boots, the 1460 Vonda uses a lightweight leather called Softy T. It is full-grain, but is treated by DM to make it supple and soft.
On top of this, the 1460 Vonda has Airwair bouncing soles, 8 eyelets, grooved edges, scripted heel-loop, and yellow welt stitching. It is also Goodyear-welted so it's highly durable.
Dr. Martens Women's Rometty Leather Boots
This pull-on style boot will definitely make you rethink purchasing the one I already mentioned. Although not as loud and bold as other DM boots, the Rometty Wyoming is perfect for the minimalist woman.
The upper is made of leather that has an oily surface and a subtle grain feature. It is actually burnished to darken the counters and toe of the boots.
Unlike other DM boots, this one has a cemented construction. In other words, the sole is attached to the leather upper through cementing for extra durability and flexibility.
This also features elastic gussets, a rugged heel, heel loop, and yellow welt stitching.
If you want a playful-looking boot, go for this polka lace-up! It has a high-impact print that combines stripes and polka dots— perfect as a party pair.
Dr. Martens 1460 Women's Polka Dot Smooth Leather Lace Up Boots
Since this is inspired by the 1460 classic DM, it uses smooth leather and has 8 eyes. It also has a grooved outsole, AirWair heel loop, and yellow stitching. It is also Goodyear welted and paired with Smoke DM's sole.
Not satisfied with 8 eyelets, why not make it 20? The 1b60 Virginia Leather Knee High Boots are head-turning as it looks very rebellious with its extra high fit and 20-eye style. DM says that this boot is punk-inspired!
Dr. Martens 1b60 Virginia Leather Knee High Boots
It has a medial inner zip so it's easy to wear, plus, it retains DM's DNA: it uses an air-cushioned sole, it has grooved sides, and a yellow heel loop and stitching.
It is also Goodyear-welted so you can expect no less in terms of durability.
As for its upper, Dr. Martens used Virginia leather. This is a fine grain leather that is made soft and supple through treatment.
Dr. Martens Sinclair Lazy Oaf Leather Platform Boots
What accent makes anything look feminine more than flowers? Ribbons!
The Sinclair Lazy Oaf has a detachable Dory bow so it's perfect for those who want a girl-looking boot. What's more, this feminine DM boot is screen-printed with Lazy Oaf's signature illustrations. You can find these illustrations at the cutout backstrap.
Apart from all these, this boot has a lot of details that make it fun to wear. It has a detachable Piza jungle zip, zip pulls in black metal, dual-branded sock liners, dual heel-loop, yellow stitching, and black eyelets.
The upper of this boot is made of Piza, a milled Nappa leather that has a rich pigment.
Dr. Martens Chesney Leather Flared Heel Lace Up Boots
You'll love the extra flared high heels of this boot! It looks very empowering when worn so I listed it as DM's most feminine.
The upper of this 8-eye boot is made of Sendal, a Nappa leather that is natural-looking and semi-aniline. It is quite new, but it has a really soft and smooth full-grain finish.
As for the sole, it is cemented to the leather upper for better durability. It is also reinforced with yellow stitchings.
Through and through, this boot carries Dr. Martens DNA.
Looking for a classic DM 1460 8-eye boot, but isn't a fan of its chunkiness? Check out this boot!
Dr. Martens Women’s 1460 Original Boots
It has everything that a 1460 boot would have—grooved sides, air-cushioned sole, yellow-stitching—but it is built slimmer. When put side-by-side, you'll notice how narrow this boot is compared to the classic 1460.
Another nice thing about this 1460 women's boot is that it is oil and fat-resistant. It also has exceptional slip and abrasion resistance.
This lace up boot also comes in purple and pale pink colors! They're super fun to look at, especially with their shiny patent leather upper.
Dr. Martens 1460 Women's Patent Leather Lace Up Boots
This is actually an enhanced version of the original 1460 DM boot. It uses a patent lamper, a type of fine-grade leather that has a high shine and glossy finish.
You'll still see the DM's DNA in this boot. It is Goodyear-welted and has an air-cushioned sole; plus, it has yellow stitchings and an AirWair heel loop.
If you're a woman with wide feet, this is suitable for you because it can fit normal to wide feet sizes.
What's not to love about this 1460 Pascal boot? It is made of Sendal, a new, natural-looking Nappa leather that has a full-grain smooth finish.
Dr. Martens 1460 Pascal Women's Chain Leather Lace Up Boots
Another thing to note is that this boot has horseshoe buckles that are heritage-inspired! They are matched with sturdy rounded lace hooks.
Of course, this 1460 Pascal is Goodyear-welted. The outer soles are classic looking and it is made of bouncy material.
If you want the most feminine variety of this boot, opt for the white color!
Dr. Martens Azreya Max Leather 26-Eye Platform Boots
Dr. Martens call this boot "footwear for the fearless" and it is easy to see why. It has 26 eyes and is perfect for tall women!
For the upper, this boot uses Virginia leather that is enhanced for better comfort. Since it is thigh-high, expect a lot of things going on with this boot.
For starters, it has gunmetal trims, adjustable lace, and a zipper on its inside quarter. Of course, it still exhibits docs' DNA— the yellow stitching and heel loop. It also has cemented construction so it's pretty sturdy.
The only downside of this feminine Doc Martens is that it only fits women with narrow feet.
Price: $160
Dr. Martens Jaimes Leather Harness Chelsea Boots
This is unlike other Chelsea boots because it has an extra edge. It is made of classic smooth leather that's why it's very durable.
The alternative harness details of this boot along with its gunmetal hardware packs this pair with extra attitude. It has an inner ankle zip and everything that you can find in a doc including yellow stitching and a heel loop.
You would also be satisfied with this boot in terms of durability because it is Goodyear-welted.
If you're a fan of nice girly things, then you would definitely find Dr. Martens' feminine shoes worth the investment.
