Luxury Shoes for 09 S/S
Precious Materials and Exclusive Collections
Shoes in the coming 2009 Spring/Summer Collections, be they classic, fashion or ethnically-inspired, all have in common the search for precious materials and new combinations, from lace to ostrich, featuring bright and strong colours that are typical of the warm season.
René Caovilla finds her inspiration within the most famous and legendary gardens, from the Eden’s to the Boboli one, for a collection that wears the colours of flowers. From the model Edenism, featuring a crocheted lace flower or a crystals-inset dragon-fly that lies on the instep, to the model Tempted love, with a snake inset with Swarovski-crystals set on python sandals. In Hot joailerie coloured, diamond-cut Swarovski crystals get together with corals and gold on pleated leather whereas in Pink Lady the bright pink shade finds its best expression on fuchsia satin ribbons, embroidered with coloured stones.
Romantic and feminine is the collection signed by Francesca Mambrini, thanks to the association of the fairytale world of Mid-Summer Night Dream to contemporary trends. From the new version of the Diamond model, realized now for the first time on sandals, to new ideas with blurred or craclè Plexiglas plateaux, and heels covered with metallic and three-dimensional foils. Materials are the true protagonists of the collection: cork, brushed patent leather, python and open-work napa leather contribute to making the collection a contemporary and lively one. The vibrant colours create light contrasts.
Very particular is the collection signed by Anila, focused on Italian quality and on the design by Joanna Sykes. Some of its main characteristics are prism-heels, covered with rubber, and the ostrich paw, chosen for the must-have Stratch Clutch, also used as detail on shoes. The collection also features funny and nifty bags and shoes, inspired by the watercolours realized for the Hippolyte Romain brand.
Vicini too plays with materials: raffia, patent leather, flowery jacquard, bleached jeans, technical materials and sequins. The brand aims focuses on banana-shaped heels and interlaced straps. A number of different inspirations contribute to creating the collections signed by Giuseppe Zanotti, featuring ultra chic materials that get together with original and glamour shapes.
Sergio Rossi, that presented with Puma a limited edition of sophisticated sneakers, looks at Africa with classic leathers such as python and crocodile, combined and interpreted in new original forms: with fringes, natural horn buckles and great attention to details.
