Gianvito Rossi talks sky-high stilettos, the importance of self-expression, and how he found himself in the world of shoes.

Sitting with Gianvito Rossi in his newly opened flagship store in Marina Bay Sands, one is immediately struck by his soft-spoken demeanour. You don’t expect someone with a constellation of celebrity fans (Amal Clooney, Gisele Bündchen and the Duchess of Cambridge included) to be so unassuming but the Italian shoe designer has always preferred to let his work speak for him. Since launching his own label in 2007, he’s forged a reputation for deftly blending glamour and comfort through a painstaking 60-step process that culminates in the hand assemblage of each shoe. Today, he is known for a philosophy that places his client front and centre of each and every shoe design.
