Every shoe from khaite is a fusion of Italian elegance and New York contemporary style, as is exemplified by designs like the Miriam ballet flats. Minimalist yet striking in shape, this pair is crafted from supple leather and moulded with a pointed toe – two details that'll make it wearable for years to come.

Pronounced ‘Kate’, New York-based Khaite’s ready-to-wear collections are characterised by the kind of contradictions that epitomise the city it hails from. Everyday pieces are realised in exquisite materials; classic luxury elements reworked with a modern twist. Running through them all is a simplicity and a sensuality that makes them unquestionably covetable.
