Salvatore Ferragamo
A sartorial star of the roaring twenties, Italian shoemaker Salvatore Ferragamo quickly propelled his modest leather boutique into a go-to luxury footwear label for the Hollywood elite. The pioneering designer expanded his artisanal empire across Europe after uprooting from Hollywood to Florence in 1927, continuing to instigate new norms in women's footwear. Sixty years after Ferragamo’s passing, acclaimed creative director Paul Andrew remains true to the illustrious heritage of the Italian luxury label. Opulent designs reinvigorate sartorial staples with hand-constructed loafers, Chelsea boots, and premium leather accessories crafted using up-to-the-minute technology. Art deco architecture is paid reverence with innovative minutiae seen in signature belts, logo-adorned belt bags, and Nappa leather clutches. An approach germane to its multi generational heritage, Salvatore Ferragamo continues to offset démodé womenswear conventions with subtle embellishments and exquisite materials.
