A SHOE FIT FOR A PRINCESS
To celebrate the Royal Wedding announcement of Prince William and Kate Middleton, Benjamin Adams designer Alessandro Pavan has created an iconic shoe aptly named ‘kate’.
With a host of designers fighting for Kate’s feet, Alessandro Pavan has designed this shoe to specifically cater for the aspiring Princess. Since Kate Middleton has been thrust into the limelight, her style has evolved from safe and conservative to elegant and chic. The new style ‘kate’ embodies this transition combining sophisticated elegance and on-trend themes. Although the occasion will be incredibly formal and full of centuries of tradition, we must appreciate Kate has already broken old traditions. Therefore a more modern looking dress and shoe are somewhat inevitable.
The limited-edition style from Benjamin Adams is adorned with lavish Swarovski crystals, with an elegant combination of soft mesh material inspired by the alluring style and sophistication of Kate Middleton. Spring 2011 sees a strong focus on the airing introduction of mesh into footwear, where Alessandro has taken this theme and built delicate mesh sections to this style. Allowing you to see glimpses of skin, yet elegantly masked by ivory mesh. To bring allure and drama to the shoe, multi-sized Swarovski crystals are hand fixed to the ivory silk.
With Kate Middleton being gracefully tall Alessandro has developed the style with an unassuming yet chic mid-heel height. In commemoration of thisauspicious occasion a gold crown will be sewn in to every sock lining, making every bride feel like a true Princess.
