Berluti highlights the couture norvégienne
92
Berluti presents its latest artisanally crafted couture norvégienne detail, present in a selection of shoes, leather goods and ready-to-wear pieces. First revealed during the Winter 2021 fashion performance which took place on April 8th, couture norvégienne is a white stitch braided embroidery, traditionally employed in shoemaking to better insulate the upper and the welt from extreme weather, and which can exclusively be achieved by hand. Used not only in shoes, but also in bags, leather outerwear and ready-to-wear pieces, it highlights Berluti’s craftmanship and bootmaker expertise. Berluti’s creative team has drawn inspiration from the bold Ultima shoe - a 2001 model imagined by Olga Berluti and kept among the Maison’s archives - to come up with an innovative shoe with a thick rubber outsole and a modern attitude. Designed with an audacious round shape within a square toe and with everyday wear comfort in mind, it is made in Venezia leather with TDM Intenso patina – the most emblematic patina of the maison and completed by decorative couture norvégienne.
