Avant-garde ankle boot in ruched leather and hand-shaped Shibori textile and paper, cascading coils, pleats and a leather-covered block heel.
Part of the ‘Fantasy Shoes” collection using Shibori inspired by the different shoes a woman dreams of at various stages of her life. It is a fantasy shaped by dreams and reality, yesterday and tomorrow, a moment where tradition and modernity intersect with the local and the universal.
Shibori is a traditional Japanese dyeing technique that creates two- and three-dimensional textured surfaces. Fiber art explores innovative relationships between traditional fiber materials, techniques and history, while engaging with other creative disciplines.
