And she tells them this way: «For the launch of my brand I wanted to inspire the eternal and innate elegance of the bon ton women of the early 1900s, reinventing and reworking models and shapes in a modern way, like the classic French ballerina. I wanted to pay tribute to the icons of all time, Mademoiselle Coco Chanel in the lead, giving my personal interpretation of the class and elegance of the last century and adapting it to the 2.0 woman.»
Quality materials and classic shades. On a formal level and beyond, the next winter collection focuses on a selection of leathers «that ranges from warm and comfortable tassels to precious and bright satins to end up with loafers and velvets, symbol of class and originality.» Thushini continues. The colors of the footwear, on the other hand, range from deep blue, black and whiskey-colored brown, to which are added touches of gold and silver.
