Enter the world of roger vivier— where french romance sits together with modern, cuttingedge designs in timeless collections.
If Cinderella had a choice of shoes for the ball, she’d probably pick a pair from Roger Vivier. After all, the late shoemaker was a boundary-pushing visionary whose stilettos shod the feet of Marlene Dietrich, Catherine Deneuve and Queen Elizabeth II, to name a few. The metamorphic power of heels was never lost on Vivier when he established his namesake brand 53 years ago. Till today, they are instantly recognisable: Timeless elegance and a polished-yet-playful aesthetic come together to create shoes that are architectural wonders.
When Bruno Frisoni was made Creative Director in 2004, he modernised the legacy of this storied French brand by diversifying the brand’s offerings to include sneakers, bags, jewellery and small accessories. “I always start from a silhouette which projects the allure I’m looking for,” says Frisoni in an official statement. “From there I arrive at a shape: For a heel, a handbag or eyewear, then work on the forceful contours which will define my collection. I try to make everything lighter by giving it a sense of movement.”
