With a 100-year history, the Baldinini family, from Italy, took its first steps in footwear in 1910, making bespoke shoes entirely by hand. Today those craft skills are still as important as ever and are interwoven with creative expertise inspired by world culture. The brand has seen millions of pairs of shoes walk the planet and has more than a 100 Baldinini stores in some of the most exciting fashion hubs around the world. Headed by Gimmi Baldinini, the brand’s creations attract attention and are instantly recognised. They are the choice of a huge following of devotees and fashion enthusiasts. Baldinini’s identity embraces the changing moods of trends and innovation in keeping with the times and transcends borders, observing and staying close to the tastes of its audience. The varied collections are rich in details and solid tradition with a hint of madness, femininity and energy. For a designer like Gimmi, his creative ideal is to give a free rein to his imagination and craft skills. “What’s my style today? It is, above all, a tribute to women’s beauty. I enjoy turning materials into emotions — but it took a 100 years,” says the designer.
