I found this website and the designer has been featured in tons of top magazines like Vogue, Marie Claire and Cosmo.
Designer Henrietta Rose Samuels loves: her workshop, sushi, circles, colour and milky tea.
Her shoes look absolutely gorgeous and the idea of having a pair of shoes specially designed for me is wonderful. (I bet they'd have real sole.....hehehe
The Hetty Rose website says: "The collection is based on a theory of re-using and re-working vintage materials in a creative and sustainable way, hand making gorgeous, feminine shoes to fit.
"These materials are primarily vintage Japanese kimono fabrics: relics of a disappearing world, saturated in significance and hidden meanings.
"The colours and folds signify various seasons, occasion, status and personal taste of the wearer.
"The designer hand selects the most exquisite antique fabrics to use as uppers for shoes to create unique handmade footwear.
"The designs are simple, yet provocative, designed to make the foot appear more attractive. The collaboration of colours, materials, service and directional design result in unique, wearable footwear."
