"The shoe's design was one design from a range I created based upon the Islamic poem ‘The conference of the birds.’
I wanted to create a shoe that had an aesthetic that was reminiscent of Vein footwear design but in my own way. I wanted to sear away from a pitfall I can always fall into by only sticking to a all black design, which I normally use because I like to play with the construction and pattern pieces leaving the rest of the design simple to focus on the pattern lines.
The apron on the vamp of the shoe is inspired by a bird’s beak, narrowing to a point to the tow of the shoe as to bring the viewers eye down the shoe to create a lengthened feel to shoe but not make the cumbersome to a city wearer."
