REVIEWS — Shoes are an often underestimated element of design.
But the design of such a basic item, is a design challenge. Especially a design that has to be practical (at least for 10 minutes walking!). And also entice women to spend money.
What’s the Trend?
Shoes, especially hand-crafted, hand-decorated.
National Gallery of Victoria had a hand-decorated sneaker exhibition. There’s a ‘scene’ in Melbourne.
Handmade/decorated will be important in days of sustainability & local sourcing. We’ll need to transition to craft, trends suggest it will be the new local service economy.
The folks at Handmade Nation are doing some interesting work.
You may just like the shoes, of course.
