Tracey Neuls | Winter 2008

Not sure what it is about the matchbox or book (not fussy really) that I love. The mini shape, the graphics, the feel in the hand... it all contributes. This season, however, something came over me to actually open the box and explore those wonderfully firey little sticks inside. Needless to say, our heels are burnt this season. Crackles that are unique to every pair and a glazed effect make these some of my favorites - ever.

Being inspired by the rich texture of burnt matter (lots of it) lead us to explore our materials. In particular, we offer a sliced leather that is so incredibly textured. Eyes are not enough for this one! In general, all this exploration into black has resulted in the most richly textured collection to date.
