Hetty Rose

I love shoes and I am especially crazy about the bespoke line of shoes by Hetty Rose. These gorgeous works of art are the antithesis of mass-market bargains. Each shoe is crafted using recycled vintage materials, primarily vintage Japanese kimono fabric.

Hetty Rose, the designer and founder of the company, is not only passionate about bespoke footwear, but has a clear design philosophy—make an environmental statement in an aesthetically pleasing way.

Hetty graduated from the London College of Fashion with a degree in Footwear Design & Development. She hand selects all antique fabrics to create original, unique handmade footwear.
