The Wait is Over
Luxury shoe brand Oceedee recently launched its extremely anticipated collection designed in collaboration with Rahul Mishra. The collection was showcased as part of Rahul Mishra’s Spring Summer’ 17 collection at Paris Fashion Week and is now available for pre-order.
The naive child-like perspective of Henri Rousseau’s art forms the inspiration for the embroideries on the shoes while the chequered designs give a contrast to the clothes. In Henri’s art, we see a flower petal metamorphosised into a swan; the leaves into a zebra; flock of birds emerge from the leaves reflecting magical mirroresqueimpressions.
Oceedee created a variation of leather shoes, which included chequered designs, 3D embroideries, and rainforest themed embroidery. Traditional artisans bring to life 3D embroidery techniques on natural textiles like cotton voile and organdy inspired by Rousseau’s artworks, which are then transferred on to the leather shoes.
