British designer Nicholas Kirkwood launched his eponymous collection in spring 2005 to challenge the conventions of women’s luxury footwear. Craftsmanship plays an integral role in all of Kirkwood’s designs. It is this perfection of craftsmanship itself that has a stylistic value highlighted by the use of geometric forms of considered attention to line, proportion, and intricate detailing. All Nicholas Kirkwood shoes are 100% hand crafted in Italy.
