When it comes to luxury footwear, there’s no place like Milan Fashion Week. Here is a look at the top news from spring ’25 shoe presentations across the city.
Paris Texas
With a stylish new showroom in Milan and a just-released ad campaign that celebrates its dual personas, Paris Texas is kicking off spring ’25 with a bang. During a tour of the new space, founder and creative director Annamaria Brivio reminisced about her trip to the California desert, where she shot with photographer Harley Weir from day to night to capture all the fruits of the landscape — dramatic sunsets, rugged backdrops and joshua trees, of course. Building on the vibe of fall ’24, the collection features wedge sandals in a gradient of colors inspired by the skies at dawn. Dramatic lace-up sandals, embossed from crocodile leather in rouge noir, are a fresh addition. Mules inspired by the new showroom are bedazzled with a mirror-effect stiletto heel, while another mule style features a block Plexiglas heel hiding an engraved logo. There are also more flats on offer, including a fringed loafer and raffia ballet flats. And of course, the brand’s signature boots, worn by Beyoncé and more big names, are a mainstay, and get prime real estate in a museum-like space in the showroom.
Kate Cate
Now in her third season, Kate Cate designer Caterina Ravaglia is expanding the brand in the U.S. and Middle East, and growing her collection, too. “At the beginning, I had this juxtaposition where it was either sparkling or big chunky boots,” said the designer, who branched out by adding her beloved animal prints to low-heeled mule sandals and sneaker ballerinas made with recycled rubber soles. A crab-shaped sandal features buckles from the brand’s popular belts. But the designer is still happiest in her bold boots. “I was watching the Diane von Furstenberg documentary and she talked about going to Studio 54 in Zebra cowboy boots after she put her children to bed,” Ravaglia said. “Now I really want to go to the club in my zebra cowboy boots.”
Le Silla
Three decades and counting. Le Silla is making a major milestone with a special edition of its signature Petalo pump. With a metallic finish, the style, called Anthea, draws inspiration from surrealist art. For spring ’25, the brand explores nature, with slingbacks and sandals taking center stage. Transparency is also a key theme, as seen on slingbacks, mules, boots and more.
