In Japanese, there's a well-known saying that goes: おしゃれは足元から (oshare wa ashimoto kara) with the literal meaning of "Every good outfit starts with the shoes" -- or as we often put it in English, "Shoes complete the outfit".
This saying drums home the importance of investing in good footwear, first and foremost: When putting together an outfit, be sure to start from the shoes up, as shoes generally make the loudest statement. You may wear a fancy suit, but if your shoes are not up to scratch or simply not polished, they can all too easily ruin your otherwise perfect look.
Even a cursory glance at all these titles showing up on YouTube will tell you how commonly the saying is used.

C’est à ses chaussures que l’on reconnaît l’homme / la femme de goût.

The only one I have on the top of my mind is "Se mettre sur son trente-et-un." or "Être sur son trente-et-un"
Which mean
Mettre ses plus beaux habits. Être très bien habillé.
note: I will update it later if I think about anything else.
That does not apply: the matter has nothing to do with dressing up or with an unusual way of dressing so as to appear exceptionally neat; it has to do with a basic principle in normal dressing, the principle that you should have an overall neatness in your appearance and that the shoes play an essential role in this appearance; their aspect is not as negligible as one might think.

En fonction de l'explication davantage que de l'expression, sur le modèle de « l'habit ne fait pas le moine », influencé peut-être aussi par l'idée de « make or break (the outfit) », je dirais :
Les souliers (chaussures) font l'habit.
Je crois que cela est outré : le japonais ne mentionne qu'un commencement, pas une fin à l'habillement. ce que c'est, réellement; il n'y aurait peut être qu'une touche d'humour en cela qu'il s'agit d'une extrémité du corps, un bout, ce qui est souvent considéré comme un début.
