The new ‘it’ shoes?
Middle Eastern designers have been breaking into Hollywood more often than before, and we have seen some of the industry’s biggest names champion household names like Elie Saab to more up-and-coming labels like L’afshar. But now, Arab shoe designers are are stealing the spotlight. Jordanian-Romanian designer, Amina Muaddi, and her namesake brand of sophisticated, sassy and sultry shoes is here to stay.
Amina is the former co-founder and creative director of Oscar Tiye. After a year of leaving her old brand behind, the shoe designer established her eponymous label last year. She has seen some of the A-list celebrities rock her creations including supermodels Gigi Hadid and Miranda Kerr, and makeup mogul and reality TV star Kylie Jenner.
