The shoe is a true accessory. The season is abounded with decorations in gold, silver, floral brocade, jacquard lamé yarns, damascus, shiny leathers. In footwear emerges femininity that takes its cue from a bohemian minimalism and timeless elegance.

The heel is not excessive anymore. Many shoes have heels of approximately 5 cm and moccasins have a square-toe. The new T-bar heels are from 6 to 8 cm for the day or for the evening. There are also comfortable ankle boots and knee high boots. Another delicious essences for winter are slightly open toe sandals with fur lining in sage color.
