concept

A collection that looks at the world as a succession of details in which the sum of its parts is always more than the whole. A world of subtle contrast between masculine and feminine, multiplicity and purity, evolution and classical, rational and emotional. Marina's structured, convertible shoes are geometrical shapes of architectural influence in a challenge of creative construction versus technical constraint. Focused on the heels, they drive inspiration from past avantgard designers with their visions of a future yet to come.
