We're never not shopping for new shoes, and the Spring/Summer runways at New York Fashion Week are offering up the latest goods we're adding to our wish list. From Tory Burch's preppy luxe loafers to the definition of a minimalist heel at Helmut Lang, click through for the best shoes from NYFW.
Maguire's website also shares information about the factories where its inventory is made. "The types of factory that I work with are very proud; they're usually factories that have been run for generations or they're new factory owners that are trying to change things," she says, adding that her experience in the industry Golden Goose Sale has illustrated how few female-owned factories exist in the world.
On the way to the venue, she stopped to grab some fuel for the day, and when in Italy, the most fitting preshow snack is, of course, a big bowl of pasta. Backstage, Missoni's makeup artist Lynsey Alexander whisked Wallerstedt away to swipe on terra-cotta-hued eyeshadow with sharp black liner detail and a matching bold lip. The golden-orange glowy look complemented her auburn waves, which were center-parted and matted down by hairstylist Anthony Turner to complete the evening's edgy '90s-inspired glam. Before first looks, Wallerstedt shared her secret to staying fun yet fierce on the catwalk. "I'm more of a casual walker," she said, "so I have to make sure my face has more of an intense look on it."
The Bata Shoe Museum may be celebrating its 25th anniversary this year, Golden Goose Superstar but its creative director and senior curator Elizabeth Semmelhack has a momentous milestone of her own to celebrate too: 20 years working at the renowned Toronto museum. Semmelhack began working at the museum in 2000 as a curator, armed with a doctorate degree in Japanese art history.
Last spring, I Golden Goose Sneakers found myself walking the streets of San Francisco-from historic Jackson Square through Chinatown, over to Little Italy and back-for hours, thinking to myself, 'I never want to take these shoes off.' Now, I love shoes as much as the next girl. (Okay, maybe more than the next girl.) But this was a new sentiment, even for me. Turns out, it wasn't hyperbole when TIME magazine dubbed sneaker start-up Allbirds-which launches its Canada e-retail today-"the world's most comfortable shoes."
Indeed, the new line serves as a perfect complement to the clothing that was introduced last year. For example, the vibrancy of her Sunny Heel pairs nicely with the Cleo Midi Dress, cast in prints of bananas and oranges; the Emery Sandal is basically an extension of the Rooney Knit Pants; and the Nola Heel adds pizzazz to the Tucker Mini Dress, an outfit that will certainly turn heads.
