About Roger Vivier
Roger Vivier (1907 to 1998) studied sculpture at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris and opened his own house there in 1937. From 1953 to 1963 he designed the shoes for Christian Dior. In 1953 he made the shoes Queen Elizabeth II wore to her coronation, in 1954 he created the modern stiletto heel, and in 1959 he added the comma heel. The Belle Vivier pump, with its square chrome buckle, first appeared on the Yves Saint Laurent runway in 1965 and became famous when Catherine Deneuve wore it in the 1967 film Belle de Jour.
Today the Roger Vivier label is owned by the Tod’s Group of Diego Della Valle. Bruno Frisoni led the design from 2002 to 2018, and Gherardo Felloni, who came from Miu Miu, has been creative director since 2018. Almost everything is made in Italy. Beyond shoes, the house makes bags, belts, hats and hair pieces that carry the same buckles. Read the full story in who is Roger Vivier.
“The Stretch U Look Booties in Black is the piece to choose when you want one quiet, precise detail. It is made in Stretch fabric, patent leather finishing, leather lining and insole, rubber outer sole.”
