WE LOVE REPETTO & MARY KATRANTZOU

Colette concept store is announcing a unique collaboration between iconic ballet shoe label Repetto and Greek designer Mary Katrantzou to create a hypnotic capsule collection. The collection will showcase two models of ballet shoes and derby shoes. The collection will be available exclusively at Colette. In 1947, Rose Repetto created her first dance shoes in a workshop close to the Paris Opéra. The ballet shoes were designed for her son Roland Petit, ballet dancer and coreographer. Six decades on, the Repetto brand has its own ready-to-wear line and continues to manufacture legendary ballet pumps following the traditional method “cousu retourné”, one of Rose Repetto’s invention. Inspired by the label’s well-known expertise, Mary Katrantzou has designed a series of spectacular and unique digital prints. The designer of Greek origin, Mary Katrantzou is one of the revelations of British design, its collections traces the clothes on the border between art and product
