Throughout his 60-year career, founder Roger Vivier elevated the design and embellishment of women's footwear to an art form with his quintessential Parisian style. This creative spirit continues into the 21st century, carried on by Bruno Frisoni, who became Creative Director in 2004, and Inès de La Fressange, the brand ambassador.
"The Roger Vivier Book" celebrates the beloved maison's history, charting its growth from a shoe shop catering to affluent clients into a globally renowned brand. It is richly illustrated with newly shot photographs of vintage shoe collections and exquisite sketches. The book also features engaging conversations, including dialogues between Inès de La Fressange and Catherine Deneuve, and between Bruno Frisoni and Cate Blanchett, making for a truly comprehensive read.
This book will be available for purchase at a pop-up boutique, held for a limited time from Saturday, April 20th to Saturday, April 27th, in Harajuku, Tokyo. The boutique will showcase the full range of the latest collection.
The theme for the Spring/Summer 2013 collection is "Urban Summer." Alongside the "Prizmic" line, distinguished by its beautiful cutwork, the brand's iconic buckle series features trendy bi-color designs and vibrant prints inspired by the lush flora of tropical regions.
Each turn of the page reveals a stunning array of exquisitely elegant accessories. This book, offering a deep dive into the allure of Roger Vivier, is poised to become essential reading for fashion connoisseurs and all lovers of shoes and accessories.
