FG10's shoe fetish with LIAM FAHY


London based shoe designer Liam Fahy debuts
his luxury SS12 heel collection The Elegant Collectables’
in London and Paris.
And i for one am in LOVE with this particular shoe!
of course his collection is no short of pure craftsmanship 
so i have no doubt there is a favorite for all of of you shoe lovers! 
Colonial African school uniforms, dark liquorice coils, Pan Am girls
and 1950’s metallic typography are just some of the inspirations
behind the collection that features sharp wedges,
subtle platforms and an array of soft textures.

Metallic watersnake, nabuk python, laser cut calf and burgundy
patent materials give the collection a darker ethos
in reaction to what Liam sees as the real colours
of a British summer and the emergence of the seasonless shoe.
“The increasing pace of commercial fashion is restricting
genuine creativity amongst so many designers, as a result the
boundaries of seasons have become blurred, so why not create a
collection embracing a schizophrenic season. It’s about having
the confidence not to change so fast.”


Each one of the limited edition shoes are painstakingly inscribed with a
signature nickel detailing on each sole,
 
taking as much time to
finish as the entire upper of a normal shoe and
making each product an testament to their Italian craftsmanship.

Next season will see Liam expand into stores worldwide
and is set to unveil a range of aviation inspired clutch bags.
