This footwear and handbag collection was inspired by frozen lakes and salt flats. The idea was to create a heel that looks like an iceberg. I experimented glueing various crushed natural stones onto different heel and handle shapes, making a mold out of the shape. Then using mix of resin, glitter and natural stones to create a texture that is similar to ice.
The upper made with "cracked" and patent leather sourced directly from Italian tanneries in combination with clear vinyl.
