Berluti, the Paris based brand is infamous for making gorgeous footwear that celebrities just can't get enough of. Alessandro Bertuli's great grand daughter Olga has now taken over the reigns. Olga's latest collection of creative shoe designs and leather finishes is absolutely classy and elegant. It includes 'the Club Olga II – “gentrified, of course, but slightly roguish and always poetic”; the Dandy – “excessive and violent” and the Piercing collection - ”like a skin with wounds, scars, gashes and piercings: a gangster’s shoe”.' You can pick between a variety of materials ranging from Venezia leather, to exotic crocodile and ostrich.
Each piece is worked on by four dedicated Italian craftsmen over a period of six months to achieve a perfect finish. Of course, you have to a pay price and that is $4750. Let me just say that Venezia leather gives an extremely healthy sheen that is associated with Berluti shoes. There is a Venzia collection that features the beautiful 2 Jours weekend bag.
