Malone Souliers presents its AW24 Pre-Collection, a sophisticated blend of modernity and heritage that encapsulates the essence of Italian elegance.
This collection, deeply rooted in the golden era of mid-century Italian architecture, draws inspiration from legendary designers such as Gio Ponti, Carlo Scarpa, and Gae Aulenti. These icons revolutionized design by experimenting with unconventional materials, a bold spirit that infuses the warm and classic palette of this season’s offerings.
At the heart of the collection are standout pieces that embody the interplay of materials and textures. The Collins slingback and the Cristi mule are presented in glossy patent and croc-embossed leather, combined with semi-sheer mesh details, set against the luxurious backdrops of marble and wood. The Julia and Manu mules, crafted from bi-color raffia, echo the texture of woven leather chairs, blending traditional craftsmanship with modern aesthetics.
The Yuna sandal and Yola mules are elegantly juxtaposed against smooth glass vases, their streamlined silhouettes mirroring the refined curves of the decor. The Hayes pump, with its flat design and block heel, epitomizes comfort and simplicity. The Mona, an elegant party slipper inspired by the classic Missy, features a crest adorned with gleaming crystals and is perched upon a sleek stiletto heel.
Playful and everyday gestures are artistically captured with the Tecla pump, Taron mule, and Tanner slingback, each shoe depicted in quotidian settings, synthesizing the geometric influences of the season’s architectural references.
Complementing the new footwear icons, the Audrey bag makes a return in small and mini sizes, now updated with elevated details and designed for everyday ease. New to this season is the Vittoria, a soft and tactile clutch crafted from hand-draped satin and velvet, offering an intriguing play on proportions and silhouette.
The Malone Souliers AW24 Pre-Collection, is a collection rich in history and innovation, and is set to captivate the hearts of luxury footwear enthusiasts and admirers of Italian design alike.
