Leopard Print and Burgundy Outfits
Leopard print and burgundy is the richest pairing of the season, and the same rules apply to cheetah print. Leopard dresses and pants, burgundy velvet and satin, and shoes and bags in both.
Vagabond Shoemakers Boots: Finding the Right Pair
Vagabond Shoemakers is a Swedish shoe label from Varberg, built around craft and shoes meant to be worn for years. I like that it starts from real wear, so this edit is about boots and loafers for ordinary days.
TKEES Sandals: The Pairs Worth Buying This Season
TKEES is the Toronto flip-flop label that began with one missing shoe, a sandal that nearly disappears on the foot. I like how little it needs to say, and this edit is about the shapes worth starting with.
Trending Shoes: Kitten Heels, Snake-Embossed Pumps, Moto Boots and Ballet Flats
The shoes everyone wants right now cover a lot of ground, from slim kitten heels and snake-embossed pumps to moto boots and ballet flats. Animal textures, buckles and pointed toes are the details tying the season together. This edit sorts the most wanted pairs by type so finding the right one is quick.
Seychelles Shoes: Sizing, Fit and Best Buys
Seychelles is the Los Angeles shoe label that makes vintage-leaning boots, mules and clogs for real days. I like shoes with a little character that still get worn on an ordinary Tuesday.
Schutz Shoes: The Best Pieces Right Now
Schutz is the Brazilian shoe label Alexandre Birman started in 1995, known for boots and heels with a little attitude. I like how restless it is, and this edit is how I would shop it, one silhouette at a time.
Emme Parsons Shoes
Emme Parsons was a graphic designer and art director in New York, working on brands like Theory and Lucky magazine, before she moved to Los Angeles and launched her eponymous footwear label in 2017 with just three sandal styles. She had no formal shoemaking training, so she took a one-day workshop at a Los Angeles shoe-repair shop before her first samples were even cut, and every pair is still made by a family-run factory in Italy.
ALAÏA Shoes and Bags
Azzedine Alaïa trained as a sculptor in Tunis before he ever cut a pattern, and it shows in everything the house has made since. He worked briefly at Dior, then Guy Laroche and Thierry Mugler, opened his own atelier in a Paris apartment on rue de Bellechasse in 1979, and built a body-first vocabulary that the industry has been borrowing ever since.
Andrea Gomez Shoes
Andrea Gomez studied jewellery design in Florence as a teenager, then at FIT in New York and the London College of Fashion, and worked at DKNY before launching her own shoes. She started in Caracas in 2011 with her sisters Leonor and Mariela, then relaunched the line in New York for spring 2017. Everything is made in a small family-owned factory near Alicante in Spain.
Amina Muaddi Heels and Shoes
Amina Muaddi was born in Romania in 1986 to a Jordanian father and a Romanian mother, studied fashion communication at IED in Milan, and worked as an assistant stylist at L'Uomo Vogue, Vogue Italia and American GQ. She then spent a year learning shoemaking from artisans in Riviera del Brenta, co-founded Oscar Tiye, left it, and launched her own label in August 2018.
Aeyde Shoes
Aeyde was founded in Berlin in spring 2015 by Luisa Dames and Constantin Langholz-Baikousis, who met in 2011 working at Zalando, where Dames ran the private-label division and its production across India, Bangladesh and China. They launched with about twelve pairs of shoes made in family-owned factories in Italy's Marche region.
Studio Amelia Shoes
Emily Amelia Inglis founded Studio Amelia in Sydney in 2019 after struggling to find a flat sandal that was neither too relaxed nor too dressy, and deciding to design her own. The debut collection launched with just four sandal styles in four colorways, and was an instant hit
Salomon Shoes
Salomon was founded in 1947 in Annecy, France, by François Salomon, who began by making wood saw blades and steel ski edges with his wife and son Georges in a small workshop. Georges pushed the company toward skiing specifically, patenting safety bindings and eventually the first rear-entry ski boot, and that same engineering-first approach now defines the trail and outdoor shoes the brand is known for.
Cult Gaia Bags and Dresses
Jasmin Larian started Cult Gaia in 2012, making flower crowns and wired-fabric headbands for friends around New York while she was training at FIT. The label found its real signature in the bamboo Ark bag, a sculptural, unmistakable shape that turned a slow-burning accessory into one of the decade's most photographed bags and pushed the brand into ready-to-wear, footwear and eventually bridal.
Fleur du Mal Dresses and Shoes
Jennifer Zuccarini launched Fleur du Mal in New York in 2012 after stints co-founding Kiki de Montparnasse and designing intimates at Victoria's Secret, taking the brand's name from Baudelaire's collection of poems. Her pitch was lingerie meant to be worn on an ordinary day rather than saved for an occasion, which is why the label expanded into ready-to-wear and swim without ever losing its underpinnings logic.
Proenza Schouler Bags and Dresses
Jack McCollough and Lazaro Hernandez met at Parsons in New York and founded Proenza Schouler, named for their mothers' maiden names, when Barneys bought their senior thesis collection outright in 2002. The label built its reputation on the PS1 satchel, introduced in 2008, and on a run of CFDA awards including the first-ever CFDA and Vogue Fashion Fund prize in 2004.
Jacquemus Bags and Shoes
Simon Porte Jacquemus founded his label in Paris in 2009, at twenty, naming it after his mother's maiden name the same year she died, a loss he has described as the shock that pushed him to start designing. The house grew from a one-man operation into an independent fashion company with hundreds of employees, opening its first permanent store on Avenue Montaigne in 2022 after years of building a name through inventive presentations and a fast-growing digital following.
