When one of the world’s premier luxury shoe designers announces their first full men’s collection you should probably stop whatever it is you’re doing and take notice. Italian designer Giuseppe Zanotti has come a long way since his days of freelancing for fashion juggernauts like Valentino and Missoni, so much that in the twelve years since his first boutique opened he’s built a tremendous reputation that rivals that of Christian Louboutin. The fact that Kanye West personally selected Zanotti to co-design a pair of $6,000 shoes for his first ever runway show pretty much solidifies his position as one of the king’s of luxury footwear. Zanotti will launch his new men’s collection next week in Florence, Italy at Pitti Uomo 82, the menswear tradeshow. What’s interesting is that aside from sneakers and sandals, he’ll also be presenting a line of limited-edition rhinestone encrusted slippers that are oddly enough, “inspired by the world of superheroes". Perhaps Lawrence, our EIC, can see what that’s all about since he’ll be in attendance next week.
