In 1999 Bruno Frisoni launched his first shoe collection. "When I started I wanted to design clothes but I soon developed a passion for accessories and especially for shoes. You just carry a bag with you whereas a shoe is part of you".

Frisoni treats the shoe like a piece of clothing with boots as gloves, barefeet shaped as shoulder pads or ankle socks sandals. Before sketching a heel, the designer outlines a silhouette and creates an attitude. Frisoni works straight from the body and drapes fabrics and ribbons on his feet like a real couturier. His undone buttonhole denim shoe, already a must have, all started from a pair of jeans sliding down an ankle.

Each creation, more overornated than minimalist, is interlaced with leather and fabric and decorated with creative trims. "I’m not into pure design as the techinical aspect of the shoe is not that interesting to me. I like the decorum better, the structure doesn’t count but the intention is essential ". Frisoni’s shoes are storytellers and the designer finds his inspiration in a passion for Yves Saint Laurent and a love for Kiraz’s Les Parisiennes. His shoe design finds its energy and its modern outlook in a mix of varied nostalgic influences, like a 60’s retro shape electrified with 80’s flashy colours.

Bruno Frisoni’s beautiful creations dress up the woman’s feet like a piece of jewellery around her neck. No need to be overdressed with charms or rich colours as the shoes shine for themselves. Muses such as Kate Moss, Charlotte Gainsbourg or Victoria Abril cart their Frisoni’s round to festivals and parties. Girls just want to have fun!
