I’d like to speak on behalf of most women when I say that our obsession with shoes is never-ending. The fascination has gone beyond the standard looking heels, we want statement shoes one that scream out our passion. What’s greater than buying a spectacular shoe? Nothing. With crystal and sequin embellishment, or bright coloured stripes to crazy studding and beading. Who is the answer to our prayers? None other than the current spectacular shoe designer Sophia Webster. After assisting Nicholas Kirkwood who acted as a mentor to the London designer, she very quickly got on the fashion ladder with her first collection. Her shoes are now stocked in Harvey Nichols and online exclusively at net-a-porter.com. Her first collection is based on her recent factory trips to Brazil where she admired the pastel coloured houses. Taking inspiration from the buildings, the people and the landscapes with their lively and colourful ways she created her fab designs.
