WALKING ON PETALS
Giuseppe Zanotti took flowers as an inspiration and twined them throughout the women’s collection, complementing the elegant convex curve of women’s legs.
“The foot needs to be celebrated with jewel. It shouldn’t be hidden.’’ Italian luxury footwear and fashion designer Giuseppe Zanotti once said. For this spring and summer, Giuseppe Zanotti took flowers as an inspiration and twined them throughout the women’s collection, complementing the elegant convex curve of women’s legs, bringing you the spring’s bounty every step of the way.
Picture the blazing rose buds bloom under your feet, as if the red hot passion is fused into your grace and elegance. Sandals are decorated with camellias, delicately covered in a multitude of crystals, blossoming as a fair lady in the alluring spring. While stiletto sandals are dressed up in leather lilies by true Italian artisanship, the lively floral petals are so capturing and unique that one will be tempted to pick on them.
Bows are a pure expression of romance, elegance and femininity. High heeled stiletto sandals are tied with large silk bows that recall the exaggerated silhouettes of couture pieces, making a glaring fashion statement. If you find maxi bows too loud for your style, opt for a pair of clear vinyl mule slides that stand out for almost disappearing. With a heel covered in translucent crystals, the shoe casts the foot on a gleaming, silvery lake as if it was a dream.
For sneakerheads, a new edition, the Nidir, has arrived. The newest lace-up features a 5-centimeter heel and has a slightly retro feel. Crafted with a stripped-back, ‘90s-inspired, minimalist aesthetic, the Rory marks a return to a feminine bon ton sneaker.
For the men’s collection, black suede loafers, whether fully encrusted in crystals, embellished in metal studs or covered in rich embroidery, remain a timeless must-have for this season. To add glamour, espadrilles are crafted with a rubber sole to give the classic shoe an innovative twist. Since there are no added reinforcements in the construction, it has a double life, both as a shoe and a slipper.
Crafted in sporty materials, vegetable-dyed, with structured foundations and full of warm, full colors, the other face of this Spring/Summer collection is smart and casual. The Giuseppe Zanotti sneakers have adopted previously unseen 3D materials to give new life to the best-selling Urchin and Blabber sneakers.
Making use of a vast array of materials, from suede and nappa to vinyl, laminate, satin latex, iridescent materials and other high-tech fabrics, the standout line-up of the Spring/Summer collection dazzles us like a full bloom garden, casting a spell on everyone who sees.
