Manolo Blahnik

The exciting collaboration working with Manolo Blahnik on the design for the first ever Manolo Blahnik shop outside of their stand alone stores. Inspired by Aubrey Beardsley and William Morris I embarked on a journey to create a department that the maestro of shoe design would one day say 'i love it'.  Unkle Olo as he became known after a meeting with him and his niece Kristna Blahnik is charming, thoughtful and uncompromising. The result a dramatic fusion of Liberty past and present and Manolo's journey of the shoe, as each arch takes you further into a world of floating shoes that don't fail to excite.
