BLAHNIK Manolo (Shoe designer)

Rude and nude, but executed with as much refinement as a queen's coronation slipper, Manolo Blahnik's sexy sandal is made out of black leather. The transforming powers of Blahnik's shoes are legendary. They are said to lengthen the leg from the hip all the way to the toe. The secret lies in balance and taste; neither proportion nor degree of fashionability ever stray into vulgarity, thereby upsetting Blahnik's careful blend of style and function. He left the Canary Islands to study at the University of Geneva and at the École du Louvre in Paris. During a trip to New York in 1973, an appointment with American Vogue editor Diana Vreeland inspired him to settle in London and open his first shop. Blahnik's influential shoe designs are the sole choice for catwalk collections for many designers. His shoes were immortalized in TV's Sex and the City and in 2012 he received the Outstanding Achievement Award at the British Fashion Awards.
