I will take you on a journey with my hairstyles, drawing inspiration from the life of Manolo Blahnik ! Before I start the journey, I will tell you that in the previous article I told the story of how we got here. In this article, we continue with the result of our work, which makes us feel nostalgic !!!
Let’s go together and relive it today … we’re off !!!!!
When he showed his sketches to the famous Vogue editor Diana Vreeland, she urged him to design only shoes. From that day on, Manolo began visiting shoe factories and even shoemakers to learn their craft.
He collaborated with photographer Eric Boman on the book “Blahník by Boman: A Photographic Conversation” (2005) and designed the footwear for Sofia Coppola’s historical-biographical film “Marie Antoinette” (2006). In 2007 he was awarded the Order of the British Empire by Queen Elizabeth in honour of his contribution to the British fashion industry.
Manolo: The Boy Who Made Shoes For Lizards
High heels are almost synonymous with style and pop culture. From Bianca Jagger who wore them when she made the historic entrance to the famous Studio 54 on a white horse, to Kylie Minogue who wore his pumps for the cover shoot of her 2001 album that brought her back to the music scene and finally, the iconic Carrie Bradshaw, who never parted with them and would rather not pay the rent than not get a pair.
Music Box Films has acquired the rights to screen in America the documentary about the life of leading Spanish shoe designer Manolo Blahnik, according to Variety.
The Manolo Blahnik high heels are considered unique and a tribute to feminine elegance due to their special construction, refinement and feminine design.
…and we’re left with the pink slippers!
I let go of the magic of art and let my hands dance, dances without music without words but with feelings of love for art ! Enjoy !!!
Without my team I wouldn’t have done anything ! And without my photographer of course !
I love you !!!
