THE MOST EXCLUSIVE SHOE COLLECTION IN THE WORLD

Discovering Patricia Rosales’ new shoe collection is like opening a perfect box of seductively sumptuous French chocolates.  Every aspect of her designs are reminiscent of a more glamorous era when visionaries like Salvatore Ferragamo hand-crafted  one-of-a-kind shoes for Hollywood starlets, princesses and aristocrats.

Rosales shoes are like works of art combining thrilling materials like blue sapphires, black diamonds, cultured pearls, emu feathers, python, eel skin, zebra, and mink with satin, suede, calfskin, patent leather and raw silk.  She wanted to recapture the lost art of the haute couture handcrafted shoe by creating a collection full of fantasy, whimsy and delight.  She describes her design philosophy as a dramatic mix between fine jewelry making and the ancient craft of artisanal shoemaking.

I design for a woman that gets dressed starting with her shoes first, says Rosales, because if a shoe is truly provocative and unique it must never play a supporting role to the rest of her ensemble.

 

HIGH DRAMA FOR A JEWEL OF A SHOE

Patricia Rosales is passionate about her design philosophy best described as a dramatic mix between fine jewelry making and the ancient craft of artisan shoemaking. Her shoes are like works of art combining such thrilling materials as blue sapphires, black diamonds, cultured pearls, emu feathers, python, eel skin, zebra, and mink with satin, suede, calfskin, patent leather and raw silk.

“My wish is to make handcrafted singular shoes fit for Hollywood starlets, princesses, aristocrats and of course any woman who dares to desire or dream.”

EMOTION & ART

Rosales core talent involves understanding the emotion behind a shoe and then expressing it through her creations.

“We should never forget that shoes have the power to transform our desires into reality. An exotic and beautiful shoe can take us on a personal journey to some fantastic place either real or imagined full of fantasy, intrigue and passion.”

A DECLARATION

“I design for a woman that gets dressed starting with her shoes first because if a shoe is truly provocative and unique it must never play a supporting role to the rest of her ensemble.”

IF THESE SHOES COULD TALK

Each pair would whisper something magical. You’ll always be delightfully surprised with some exquisite detail like the unexpected placement of a gentle pearl, an exotic feather or a striking sapphire.

DREAMSCAPE

Shoes have always been a metaphor for freedom.

“When a woman comes into my atelier she enters into a whimsical soft world. My wish is that every woman who wears my shoes experiences a certain kind of intense liberation similar to the rush of feeling truly unique and entirely original. My atelier is an extension of this wish. It’s a place to dream and be free.”
