]]> Are there any shoe models that never go out of fashion? Shoes that, season after season, always remain iconic and favored?

Obviously, the answer is yes.

The history of fashion is made up of garments that have become an essential reference point during the upcoming years; just think of Coco Chanel’s suit, Dior’s New Look, Elsa Schiapparelli’s lobster dress, Givenchy’s Little Black Dress or Diane Von Furstenberg’s Wrap Dress.

This list is very long and shows how some models become real icons, a source of inspiration for stylists all over the world.

Even in the footwear world, there are timeless models that have “marked” the history of fashion. Many brands continue to propose these styles in different versions, knowing that the market still requires them.

At the same time, a high rank shoe retailer knows that in order to satisfy the needs of the customers, the shop cannot omit to offer some “timeless” shoe models which are requested by the customers, season after season.

Let’s have a look at some styles that your shop should have as continuous selection.

The moccasin, the shoe of Native Americans 

The history of this shoe is ancient and it seems to have its origin from the American Indians who used to bandage their feet with pieces of leather tied together.

The most similar version of today’s moccasin spreads in the United States in the 1930s when the GH Bass company launched moccasins, also called loafers, on the market. In that historical moment when men prefer shiny lace-up shoes, moccasins were not very successful because considered not enough elegant. It was an American dancer, Fred Astaire, a celebrity of the time, who made them famous, using them to tap dance and wearing them with a tuxedo.

In the 1950s, moccasins spread among American university students who called them penny loafers because they used to insert a coin in the strap on the upper.

In the past decades, moccasins have spread widely, becoming the subject of creative research by many brands. Such an example is the model designed by Aldo Gucci in the 1950s, unisex style, made in leather and decorated with the metal clamp which later became one of the iconic elements of Florentine brand. The success of this shoe was so huge that it was included in the permanent collection of the maison and every year it is reinterpreted and proposed in different versions.

In the 70s they became one of the symbols of businessmen status, thus clearing the cliché of their lack of elegance.

Today moccasins have freed themselves from classifications and influences of a social and political nature and have become an “ever green” shoe style that cannot miss in the male wardrobe. Each brand interprets them in its own way with different leathers, colors and finishes, with or without tassels, in all year round collections.

Oxford, an icon of style and elegance

An icon of style and elegance: the Oxford shoe is a timeless model that cannot miss in a shoe collection, this style is produced in differente materials and colors. More or less elegant according to the finishes, the Oxford differs from the other lace-ups for the characteristic “closed lacing” system.

This shoe has many names and perhaps for this reason every now and then there is a bit of confusion about this model; the Americans call it Balmoral (like the Scottish castle, the residence of the British royal family), the French call it Richelieu and the British call it Oxford (as an evolution of the Oxonian, thevery popular boot among Oxford University students in the 19th century). In Italy they are called Oxford or Francesine.

There are many news about the origin but there is no certain attribution: they certainly appeared in Ireland and Scotland in the 19th century as a lighter and more elegant version of the boots.

The upper of the Oxford shoes can be totally smooth or have hole design on the toe and / or upper (in this case we are talking about Brogues). Whatever you want to call them, they are the most elegant shoes as well as the protagonists of the men’s collections of high-level brands.

Derby, the Oxford’s “sisters”

Often confused with the Oxford shoe, it is a less formal shoe that stands out from the others for its “open lacing”. There are several stories that tell its origins, including that of the Prussian army officer Gebhard Leberecht von Blücher who during the Napoleonic wars would have created these shoes for his soldiers, tired of wearing high boots. It was a shoe with an open lacing, much more practical and suitable for the long and difficult journeys to which the military were subjected.

If this is not their true origin, what is certain is that the Derbies spread in the 19th century between Ireland and Scotland and have never ceased to be successful. Also in this case Derby has become a style icon that each brand wants to reinterpret in one or more versions. Colors, materials, finishes and broguing characterize them and make them suitable for different occasions.

A high rank shop should have several versions of these three models in its selection. Obviously, the value of the footwear doesn’t depend only on the model but also on the materials, finishes and production characteristics; in this case the details do make difference.

Fratelli Borgioli produces numerous variations of these three models every year, paying attention to every single detail and trying to interpret tradition with elegance and innovation.

Fratelli Borgioli’s shoes are the result of a family tradition that began more than seventy years ago in an artisan workshop in the heart of the Florentine countryside, in La Stella di Vinci.

Each Fratelli Borgioli shoe is a real artisan masterpiece, flawless and comfortable. The tradition of Tuscan craftsmanship and technological innovation merge together to create a shoe that accompanies its owner for the entire life.

With the style and formal perfection of its products, Fratelli Borgioli keeps the passion for Italian taste alive in the world, thanks to a network of selected retailers who believe in beauty and quality.

]]> Fashion doesn’t stop. It constantly changes with new formats, but does not give up on fashion shows, which have officially become phygital (physical and digital). Read our article and discover the best fashion events scheduled for 2021.

If you are passionate about fashion, you have to follow what happens in the world’s top fashion events – they are the best place to find new fashion trends.

A fashion show is an event organized by fashion designers or stylists to showcase their upcoming line of clothing and/or accessories.

The shows debut every season, particularly in the Spring/Summer and Fall/Winter seasons. This is where the latest fashion trends are made.

The display of the clothes on the runway is often an intellectual and artistic construction of the designer’s ideas. The public has the task of interpreting them, while appreciating the details and workmanship of every single item.

Many of the contemporary designers tend to produce their own shows as if they were theatrical performances, with additional elements such as live music and technology components.

Here is our list of the world’s most famous fashion events of 2021:

Pitti Uomo

  • Website: Pitti Uomo
  • Location: Florence, Italy
  • Dates: January 12, 2021

The first fashion event to mark on the calendar is Pitti Uomo. Pitti Immagine Uomo presents the men’s clothing and accessories collections from the best international designers twice a year.

The event is the meeting point par excellence for buyers from all over the world who focus on the quality of Made in Italy of famous and emerging international brands.

Its origins date back to the 1950s, when the success of Florentine artisan tailors began to grow on the international scene. More precisely, the origins of Pitti Uomo date back to 12 February 1952, with an event called First Italian High Fashion Show, and originally dedicated to women’s fashion.

From Tuesday 12 January, Pitti Uomo is online on Pitti Connect, Pitti’s innovative and revolutionary digital platform that will host special events and fashion projects. The digital format of the 99th edition of Pitti Uomo will remain online until the end of March.

In this edition, Pitti Uomo will be divided into three areas to give representation to the classic-contemporary world (Fantastic Classic), sportswear and the outdoors (Dynamic Attitude) and research (SuperStyling).

“The Pitti Connect platform is greatly renewed compared to last summer“, says Poletto, general manager. The new functions have been designed and built for the needs of companies in their relationship with buyers in order to give exhibitors the opportunity to release more content.

  • Dates: January 25-28, 2021 and July 4-8, 2021

By definition, Haute Couture is the creation of exclusive custom-fit clothing which is meticulously crafted by the industry’s most skilled artisans. Its origins are attributed to Charles Frederick Worth who founded the first true Couture House in 1858.

New York Fashion Week

Although there are many famous fashion weeks around the world, only four are known as the “Big Four“: New York, London, Milan and Paris.

In general, the New York Fashion Week is the first to kick off the Fashion Week season twice a year, taking place at the beginning of February.

The first New York Fashion Week was created in 1943 by Eleanor Lambert, press director of the New York Dress Institute, the American fashion industry’s first promotional organization.

This year, the shortened New York Fashion Week was held from 14 to 17 February 2021. CFDA chairman Tom Ford renamed the official New York Fashion Week schedule to the “American Collections Calendar” to reflect the growing number of American designers showing in locations outside of New York.

The presentations can be viewed through Runway360, the CFDA’s digital platform and on nyfw.com. Some shows will be streamed through each designer’s social media accounts.

London Fashion Week

The London Fashion Week is the shortest and the youngest of the Big 4 fashion weeks, lasting just 5 days, and quickly following the New York Fashion Week.

The first official London Fashion Week took place in October 1983 and its location was a car park.

This year, the London Fashion Week took place from 19 to 23 February 2021 on www.londonfashionweek.com, a digital platform, where people can access not just the collections, but also additional multi-media content, including interviews with designers, podcasts and e-commerce.

The schedule included 95 designers: 34 women, 22 men, 29 unisex and 10 accessory brands. Most of the collections are presented in a virtual format via its “Official LFW Digital Hub” virtual platform.

Milan Fashion Week

  • Website: Milan Fashion Week
  • Location: Milan, Italy

The Milan Fashion Week is held twice a year in Milan, Italy. The Spring/Summer Show Event is held in September/October, while the Fall/Winter one is held in February/March.

The Italian fashion week owes its origin to Giovanni Battista Giorgini who, inspired by Eleanor Lambert, the mother of fashion week, organized a series of shows at Palazzo Pitti in Florence.

Thanks to him, Italian fashion gained international legitimacy, but due to problems of overcrowding in the city of Florence, fashion shows were moved to Milan where, in 1975, the first Fashion Week took place.

The 2021 edition of Milan Fashion Week took place in its “Phygital” version, with physical events and digital presentations and it was open only to journalists, photographers, buyers and professionals in the sector.

From January 15th to 19th, men’s fashion week included 5 live fashion shows and 32 digital contents that was visible on the Camera Moda platform.

For the women’s collection, from 23 February to 1 March, the fashion week included 124 appointments in the calendar: 61 fashion shows, 57 presentations, of which 15 physical and 42 digital and 6 other events.

Paris Fashion Week

  • Website: Paris Fashion Week
  • Location: Paris, France
  • Dates: January 19-24, 2021 and March 1-9, 2021

Finally, the Paris Fashion Week is the last of the year of the Big 4 and the longest one lasting 9 days.

The first Paris fashion week was conceived in 1973 by the Fédération Française de la Couture and it was held at the palace of Versailles, while in recent years it has been held in the Carrousel du Louvre.

This year, Paris held the fashion week dedicated to men’s collections for Fall/Winter 2020/2021 from January 19th to 24th.

The one dedicated to the women’s collection will be held from 1 to 9 March. For the Spring/Summer collection the dates announced are: from 22nd to 27th June for men and from 27th September to 5th October for women.

Tokyo Fashion Week

Hosted by the Japan Fashion Week Organization, the Tokyo Fashion Week is held biannually with the Autumn/Winter collection in March and the Spring/Summer one in October.

Since 2005, Tokyo has been climbing the social ladder and is looking to expand the group to the “Big 5”.

This year, Rakuten Fashion Week TOKYO 2021 A/W is scheduled for March 15-20, 2021. Japan’s latest creations are showcased to the world at Shibuya Hikarie and Omotesando Hills as well as other locations in Tokyo.

The Shanghai Fashion Week is held two times every year in Shanghai and it is part of the Shanghai International Fashion Culture Festival which usually lasts for a month.

The first edition of the Shanghai Fashion Week was in 2001. Supported by the Ministry of Commerce, it is a business and cultural event hosted by the Shanghai Municipal Government.

For the 2021 edition, Shanghai Fashion Week has been postponed to early April according to internal sources, although it hasn’t been officially announced yet.

Another famous fashion event is the Met Gala. Also known as the “Met Ball”, it is an annual fundraising gala for the benefit of the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute in New York City.

The first edition of the Met Gala took place in 1948 and was aimed at raising funds for the new Costume Institute. Nowadays, all exhibitions serve to place fashion within the context of contemporary culture.

The dates of this year’s event have not been announced yet. Last year, the theme was “About Time: Fashion and Duration”, but due to the Coronavirus, but the physical event was canceled and became digital.

Many celebrities contributed to the online programming of the event which was broadcast on the Vogue America Youtube channel on 4 and 5 May, 2020.

CFDA Fashion Awards

The CFDA Fashion Awards is an event organized by the Council of Fashion Designers of America, which honors excellence in fashion design in America. For this reason, it has been called “the Oscars of fashion“.

The first awards issued by the Association were in 1984 with a Lifetime Achievement Award to the stylist James Galanos. Subsequently, different award categories were defined which were then standardized at the end of the 1990s.

The 2020 edition was the first in digital mode and was broadcast through the Runway360 online platform on September 14. The winners were announced by Tom Ford in a video posted on the digital platform of the Council of Fashion Designers of America.

The CFDA did not comment on the possibility of repeating the men’s event experienced last year. However, on 26th February, he is launching IMPACT a new, multi-faceted initiative to create opportunities for historically underrepresented and unsupported communities in fashion.

As CFDA states, “IMPACT will identify, connect, support, and nurture Black and Brown creatives and professionals in fashion, furthering CFDA’s mission to advance American fashion by including diverse talent in every facet of the industry’s ecosystem.”

Green Carpet Fashion Awards

In conclusion, the Green Carpet Fashion Awards is an innovative event that was created to promote and reward fashion houses and emerging designers who are committed to making their products sustainable and ethical.

Since 2017, the National Chamber of Italian Fashion and Eco-Age, a sustainability consultancy agency founded by Livia Firth, annually confer an award to stylists, entrepreneurs and artisans who have encouraged sustainability in the fashion sector.

Last year, the fourth edition of the GCFAs was broadcast on Saturday 10 October on Sky Uno. They was also broadcast during Shanghai Fashion Week where a special event was held to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the relationship between Italy and China.

]]> Discover the variety of the styles of our hand-picked list of 10 italian fashion photographers in our latest article.

Everything can be fashionable and everything can be a trend.

Summer garments come out in autumn, and the winter ones come out in summer: fashion is always one step ahead. Between fashion shows, stylists, models and influencers, there is always something that is trendy and that everyone decides to follow.

Fashion is also photography. As Coco Chanel puts it:

“Fashion is not something that exists only in clothes. Fashion is in the sky, in the street, fashion has to do with ideas, our way of life, what is happening.”

(Coco Chanel)

While stylists choose the models who best represent their style, photographers face the challenging task of making it stand out.

The diversity of the photographers’ approach to this task is well reflected in the works of our hand-picked 10 italian fashion photographers:

Oliviero Toscani

Let’s start with Oliviero Toscani, a photographer who is often criticized and censored for his photos.

He has photographed models for some magazines such as Vogue and Elle but is famous for his provocative style that he expresses through his photos.

By the way, he did an important advertising campaign for the Benedetton brand where he voluntarily photographed some anorexic models to go against too strict beauty standards in the fashion world.

A style then that we can call shockvertising and that still today thanks to his photos is used for some social complaints.

Mario Sorrenti

Mario sorrenti was born in Naples but moved to New York where he soon became famous for his photos.

He has worked for both Vogue USA and Vogue Italia as well as for other important magazines but his fame is due to the photographs taken of Kate Moss.

Sorrenti is an avant-garde photographer, he likes to photograph nude or semi-nude models and tries to enhance their sensuality and sexuality.

His photos are often in black and white or in any case with cold tones that highlight the model. He often photographs street people, models but also ordinary people and in these photos often stands out the background and the street.

Ferdinando Scianna

Scianna was born in Sicily in 1943 and began his career as a very young photographer.

At first he began photographing Sicilian landscapes until, after his meeting with Sciascia, he decided to also decide to take pictures of religious holidays until he moved to Milan where he began working for the European Championship.

When he goes to Paris he makes friends with Henri Bresson and this starts his career as a photographer in fashion. His style is simple and he often photographs in black and white.

The scenarios are simple, with models of which he enhances the sensuality. Scianna also worked in Milan for the fashion house Dolge & Gabbana.

Paolo Roversi

Paolo roversi was born in Ravenna in 1947 and decides to become a photographer after a trip made with his family in Spagna.

Here he became passionate about the world of fashion and decided to open his first studio in 1973 in Ravenna, also forging collaborations with Nevio Natali.

Only after his move to Paris, Roversi begins to photograph for important fashion houses and magazines. Vogue itself considers him one of the most talented photographers and it is not surprising.

His photos are a mixture of close-ups, of simple photos but in which the natural beauty of the model is enhanced together with a mixture of mystery and sensuality.

Roberta Krasnig

Roberta is a talented photographer who often collaborates with famous celebrities and models as she travels between Rome, the city where she was born, Milan and Paris.

Her goal is to make the model feel at ease, breaking down her shyness and managing to enhance her often hidden confidence. She has a modern style, her photos are all very colorful, a mix of close-ups and original poses.

She also photographs models in groups and not the single person, such as some photos set in a dance school where he alternates colors and particular poses.

Lucia Giaciani

Lucia Giaciani was born in the province of Ancona in 1976 where she attended a design school and became passionate about black and white photo photography, until she moved to Milan to become a fashion photographer.

She works for important fashion magazines like Vogue but it is her style that makes her a great photographer: original, eccentric photos, models with strange hairstyles, with colorful dresses that enhance even more particular and equally colorful scenarios.

Some of these are simple but in some photos Lucia uses backgrounds such as chessboards, carriages and horses and enchanted forests. Photos that are worth seeing.

Mauro Del Signore

Based in Milan (Italy), Mauro Del Signore is an emerging street fashion photographer who has worked with many celebrities from the world of fashion and entertainment.

You might meet him on the streets of Milan walking in his sneakers, his camera and a very casual and comfortable style.

We like his style which always conveys something real, highlighting the personality and beauty of the person.

Gian Paolo Barbieri

Born in Milan, he first began working as an actor and costume designer and then, after moving to Rome, he became a photographer, also collaborating for Harper’s Bazar.

After opening her studio in Milan she works for fashion magazines such as Condè Nast and for international magazines such as Vogue America even if her photos are exhibited almost all over the world as in the MAMM in Moscow.

He has photographed many celebrities such as Roberto Bolle, his style is simple and his photos are often in black and white while enhancing the gaze, pose and body of the photographer.

Ilaria Orsini

Ilaria Orsini always moved between Milan, New York and Paris while she collaborated for Double Magazine and other important fashion magazines.

She herself often defines her style halfway between cinema and a break with modernity, also calling herself a non-conformist for the poses, angles and backgrounds she uses.

The models are almost never photographed in full, often uses a blur effect and in many photos she prefers to give space to the background, minimalist but simple and impactful.

Arianna Lago

Finally, we suggest you keep an eye on Arianna Lago. She is a great Italian photographer even though she lives and works in London while collaborating with important magazines such as Metal.

Only recently she is establishing herself as a fashion photographer. Her goal is to always show the natural beauty of the models, their bodies and the environment that surrounds them.

She always manages to photograph the subject and the space, creating harmonious and simple environments. At the same time, it conveys the fragility of the subject in a safe and comforting environment, a mixture of fashion and pure art.

She loves colors and playing with lights to recreate environments that also express an artistic sense. An emerging photographer not to be missed.
