Alaïa has perfected the formula for styles utterly enthralling to look at. The maison deftly juxtaposes the sleek lines and pointed toe of the Invisible Wedge pumps against the fluidity of the plexiglass heel, capturing the seasonal proclivity for textural intrigue.

The legendary Paris fashion house was founded in the sixties and by the 1980s, Tunisian sculptor and couturier, Azzedine Alaïa’s powerful, feminine silhouettes were revered worldwide. Today, his legacy prevails in dresses and ready to wear, shoes and bags, including the cult La Coeur heart bag.
