Every good closet deserves Aquazzura shoes
Never failing to strike the perfect balance between sophisticated and understated, AQUAZZURA’s faultless heels have become bona fide closet staples for the world’s best dressed women – which is just one of the reasons why no wardrobe is complete without a pair
Whether you’re part of Hollywood’s elite, like Margot Robbie, Scarlett Johansson and Priyanka Chopra, or the Duchess of Sussex, a life lived in the public eye, attending movie premieres and gala dinners, demands impeccable personal style. It’s no wonder then, that these women’s first choice when it comes to footwear is Florence-based brand Aquazzura.
Established in 2011 by design virtuoso Edgardo Osorio – who, despite being just 25 at the time, had already spent a decade in the industry, honing his skills at illustrious labels including Salvatore Ferragamo and Roberto Cavalli – Aquazzura was a runaway success from day one. The label’s focus on fun yet refined styles that work for all manner of occasions is informed by Osorio’s international lifestyle – he was born in Colombia and raised between Miami and London. However, despite Osorio’s peripatetic upbringing, when it came to finding a base for his own fashion house, there was only one choice – the Palazzo Corsini, in the heart of Florence, surrounded by the world’s most skilled shoemakers and craftsmen.
“Aquazzura’s exquisitely constructed shoes are both breathtaking and eminently wearable – an irresistible combination
”
It’s exactly this, the deft way that Osorio combines centuries of tradition with a decidedly modern sensibility and aesthetic that has garnered him legions of loyal fans and turned Aquazzura into a cult label. In fact, the desirability of his often vertiginous designs bely the fact that, for Osorio, comfort is just as important as aesthetics. Indeed, his exquisitely constructed shoes are both breathtaking and eminently wearable – an irresistible combination.
Take one of Aquazzura’s signature styles – the Deneuve. Cast in a subtle shade of blush suede, these elegant yet effortless heels promise to work with everything from riotous prints dresses to sultry silk slips. These sandals may be high, but the delicate ankle strap has both a slimming effect on the leg and provides the ankle support you need to last all day in them – making this style a failsafe option for summer weddings and garden parties. Hunting for the perfect desk to dinner shoe? Look no further than Aquazzura’s bejeweled mules. This unwaveringly chic design elevates one of today’s most in-demand shapes. The perfect accompaniment to sharp precision-cut tailoring, these statement shoes will lend you presence in the boardroom and beyond. Of course, no occasion calls for fabulous footwear quite like a night out, and that’s when Aquazzura’s mood-enhancing heels come into their own. Crystal-studded stilettos make the perfect ‘plus one’ with everything from after-dark suiting to micro mini dresses – all the better for showing off your envy-inducing shoes. As with all Aquazzura’s exquisitely crafted pieces, these sandals are a pleasure to wear – leaving you free to dance the night away in style and comfort, while everyone admires your fancy footwork.
