Shoes inspired by different
musical styles, biodegradable shoes and modular shoes with
uppers that can be zipped to the sole are just some of the
products on show at MICAM, the leading international footwear
fair at Rho Fiera in Milan.
Loriblu presents its 100% organic Naturella decolleté models
or sandals, which are so environmentally friendly that they can
be disposed of together with food waste - assuming, that is,
that the owner is prepared to separate herself from the splendid
creations.
The historic brand from Porto Sant'Elpidio is also
celebrating the 40th anniversary of its famous Mignon sandal
with a special revival edition featuring a / cm heel.
"The 7 cm heel is back in fashion," Loriblu says.
Milanese designer Francesca Mambrini stands out for her
unusual decorations and presents a luxury line for sale in 20 or
so boutiques around the world.
She uses calf skin and suede and the leather is lasered to
reproduce bird feathers or decorated with sequins or fabric
flowers, while the chrome-plated heels are a towering 11 cm.
Milanese firm ACBC presents a modular design that uses a zip
system to pair 80 different uppers to just five soles.
"These shoes are practical for travellers in particular
because they allow them to carry many different pairs in a small
suitcase," explain the creators.
For now these shoes can only be purchased on line, but they
are expected to hit the shops in July.
For kids Lelly Kelly has returned to MICAM with its project
Colorissima involving sneakers with accessories that can be
coloured with special pens supplied together with the shoes and
brightly coloured, sparkly wellington boots.
