Japan's First Melissa Only Shop Opens in Harajuku

Limited Edition Shoes Arrive from Collaborations with Karl Lagerfeld and Others


Since its establishment in 1979, Melissa has continuously created shoes in a variety of colors, textures, and forms using plastic materials. The brand has collaborated with renowned creators like Vivienne Westwood, Gareth Pugh, and Jean Paul Gaultier. Its innovative and original items have garnered significant popularity not only in its home country of Brazil but also worldwide.

The newly opened dedicated shop offers a full lineup of not only modern shoes that fuse cutting-edge technology with design, but also collaboration items, making its extensive product range a key attraction.

To celebrate the opening, limited-edition collaboration shoes have been released. From the third capsule collection in collaboration with Karl Lagerfeld, an elegant shoe adorned with lustrous pearls has been introduced. With Jason Wu, now in their third year of collaboration, the collection features the same delicate detailing as always, presenting an exceptionally elegant design with a ribbon accent on the upper. In collaboration with British designer J. Maskrey, wedding shoes have also been created. For brides who wish to be comfortable on their special day, a beautiful and easy-to-wear flat shoe, embellished with sparkling Swarovski crystals, has been crafted.

The brand's appeal lies not only in its design but also in its ethical philosophy, which prioritizes environmental consideration through the use of 100% recyclable materials. We highly recommend visiting the dedicated shop, where a full array of Melissa's comfortable and eco-friendly shoes are beautifully displayed.
