Here at Your Coffee Break, we love our shoe closet but there are only few designers that can make it to our top ten. One of them is our go-to footwear designer Manolo Blahnik.
Even before Carrie B, shoe guru Manolo Blahnik was a favourite among A-listers and Hollywood’s leading ladies. For over 30 years Manolo Blahnik has been the most influential designer behind the world’s most creative footwear designs. It is no surprise that the British Fashion Council (BFC) has recently announced the collaboration with the famous designer for the London Fashion Week AW 13 show. Manolo Blahnik received the Outstanding Achievement Award at this year’s British Fashion Awards making the collaboration with the BFC for LFW AW 13 a fitting relationship, which promises some elaborate imagery for the February 2013 show.
Caroline Rush, Chief Executive at the British Fashion Council commented “We are so pleased to be collaborating with Manolo Blahnik, our BFA Outstanding Achievement winner for 2012 in this capacity. Manolo’s sketches are world famous and it will be both great fun and inspirational to see these displayed across London Fashion Week in February 2013.”
Manolo’s creative imagery can be seen all over the LFW marketing collateral including all print, digital and social media platforms. The designs are hand drawn and were inspired and resemble key industry figures who have had a major influence in Manolo’s career as a designer and in his personal life.
