With a career spanning nearly 50 years, Manolo Blahnik is one of the world's most influential footwear designers. His eponymous footwear brand has spellbound a set of adoring and loyal devotees across the globe.

A true craftsman, Blahnik makes a trip to the brand’s factories in Milan every season to personally bring each collection to life. Every shoe is developed from his sketches, which are translated into prototypes at the brand’s factories, and the exquisitely shaped lasts and heels are still perfected by Blahnik’s very own hands.

Known for its original, creative flair as well as its timeless styles, the London-based brand boasts loyal customers ranging from film stars and leading editors to women who simply trust in the perfectionism of both the brand and the designer.
