FASHIONPHILE: The Book of Iconic Shoes

The day begins at your feet. Curated by FASHIONPHILE — the ultra-luxury re-commerce platform known for buying and selling pre-owned designer bags and accessories — The Book of Iconic Shoes gathers twenty-five silhouettes that earned a place in fashion history and have held onto it ever since. Carrie Bradshaw's Manolo Blahnik Hangisis. The runway-commanding Prada Monolith. The red-soled Louboutin So Kate. Each is traced through designer sketches, campaign imagery, street style and brand archives, with the FASHIONPHILE specialists weighing in on craftsmanship, cultural significance and the quiet investment value these shoes have accrued.

Written by Dylan Kelly, the fashion editor and creator of the “Walk With Me” series, whose conversations have featured Anne Hathaway, Charli XCX and Carine Roitfeld. Across 300 pages and more than 450 illustrations, bound in silk hardcover, it is a volume built to be collected rather than shelved — for anyone who believes the right pair is sometimes all you need. From Assouline's Classics Collection.
