Wanted: Melissa x Vivienne Westwood

Monday, January 28th, 2008

Brazilian shoe brand Melissa is known for high-profile collaborations, but it’s never pulled in a partner quite like Vivienne Westwood. Fashion’s dowager queen of punk has made a pit stop in São Paulo this week, unveiling her new line over brunch this afternoon to a crowded room of fashionistas. Molded from Melissa’s signature plastic, the key style is a high-heeled Mary Jane in a range of primary colors. For those with a fear of heights, there are flats in black and maroon. If not a fashion revolution, the designs are bound to lead to at least a mob scene when they hit store shelves in Brazil this season. Stateside shoe freaks can learn more at www.melissa.com.br.
