Gucci

Made in Italy, two beige leather leaf silhouettes with gold piping overlap on this crossover sandal. Its 4.25" galvanized pink heel with snake detailing and hand-painted studs make it one of the most expensive pair of shoes—priced at ₹72,500—available in the collection in India. The shoes also have a herbarium cherry print lining on the inside.

Sergio Rossi

Inspired by the Boho chic atmosphere and priced at Euro 1,200, it takes eight hours to create a Cancun Wedge pair. The embroidery, done in nine colours on gabardine fabric, is intricately detailed with specific colour combinations, using 900 metres of yarn per pair. The 'all-over' embroidery requires special attention and artisan savoir-faire to avoid 'wrinkles'.

Jimmy Choo

A perfect finishing touch to that little black dress, the silhouette of the Lorelai 100 provides an elegant backdrop for the garden of floral embellishment that covers the upper portion and the strap detailing. Created from leather, the flower embellishment is attached to the anthracite fine-glitter shoes by hand. Costing ₹1,04,000, this hand-crafted pair is made in Italy and is finished with a delicate ankle strap and buckle fastening, for support and ease of fit.

Christian Louboutin

Priced at ₹2,07,000, Christian Louboutin’s Pigalle Follies Strass Clair de Lune 120 Suede Version Multi draws the eye with its unique strass application that has crystals in four sizes and 11 different colours. Using only the finest of materials, including jet black veau velour and roccia python, crystals in various sizes and hues—including ruby, rose and tangerine, with a cooler underbelly of cerulean and silver tones—were meticulously hand-placed to create the desired effect.
