Bernadette Classic Lacquered Pump in Grey, Grey heels
The Bernadette Classic Lacquered Pump in Grey are an authentic Grey pair of heels from the AW26 collection, made in Italy in 100% leather. Available now at Coveti, a curated luxury-fashion retailer with guaranteed authenticity and worldwide shipping. Bernadette Antwerp is a print house first, so its footwear is deliberately plain: one classic pump on a 4.5 cm kitten heel, cut in lacquered leather and in Italian satin, in the colours of the season. It is the shoe the house shows under its own dresses. Sizes run EU 35 to 41 at source.
The Classic Lacquered Pump is Bernadette’s kitten heel, made in Italy in leather with a lacquered finish and a subtle gloss, in Grey. The heel is 4.5 cm, the height that walks all day and still reads dressed. The shape is cut to pair with any of the house dresses and to stand on its own.

The Bernadette Classic Pump
- One shape: a pointed pump on a 4.5 cm kitten heel, the height that walks a full day and still reads dressed. The house cuts it in the colours of the season rather than adding new lasts.
- Lacquered leather: a smooth calf upper with a lacquered finish and a soft gloss, made in Italy.
- Italian satin: a silk-blend satin upper (Satin Imperiali, 72% viscose and 28% silk) with a quiet sheen, made in Italy.
- Worn with: the house shows the pump under the Ezra dress and the Bowery dress; a lime pump against a taupe dress, and against a black one, is the Bernadette way to add colour at the foot.

About Bernadette
Bernadette trades as Bernadette Antwerp and is the Antwerp label founded in 2018 by Charlotte de Geyter with her mother, Bernadette de Geyter. Charlotte trained at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp and is the creative director. She draws the house prints by hand, and the botanicals that come out of that, Lingerie Roses, hydrangea, delphinium, cherries and blackberries, are what the label is recognised for, usually in saturated colour. The collections run across ready-to-wear, accessories and homeware, and the accessories are made where the craft sits: embroidery in India, silk printing in Italy, shoes in Italy, knitting in China. A print belongs to the collection it was drawn for, so a colourway that sells through is rarely repeated. Bernadette is a Coveti editor favourite for wedding-guest dressing, festive-season parties and women who are tired of wearing black.
“The Bernadette Classic Lacquered Pump in Grey in Grey is the pump I point a client to when she wants colour at the foot and a heel she can stand in all evening. It is plain on purpose, because the dress is doing the talking.”
Gemma Deeks, Fashion Editor at Coveti
