Recently we were in Corridonia to visit the Santoni factory. During our tour, we saw something amazing. Santoni, leader maison in luxury footwear, meets Rubelli, the noble
Venetian firm that represents a point of reference worldwide for high-end
fabrics since 1858. A shoe that brings to amazing companies together and combines two amazing products.
The result is a small romantic masterpiece
of pure Venetian taste, a capsule collection where baroque suggestions blend with
the design mastery of Gio Ponti’s avant-garde spirit. “This capsule collection expresses at best
the refined essence and heritage of both Rubelli and Santoni, two excellencies of Made in Italy sharing a passion for timeless elegance”,
states Giuseppe Santoni, CEO of the company. The collection Santoni | Rubelli boasts a
unique style always contemporary, and is intended for a sophisticated audience
looking for objects of great personality
that go beyond the trends.”
Rubelli’s precious fabrics perfectly match
with slippers and loafers, ballerinas and laced shoes. Santoni’s cultured
tribute to history and passion for beauty, common to
Rubelli, is a selection from the most evocative patterns chosen from the infinite archive of the Venetian maison.
The most traditional lampas with bright
floral patterns and colorful suggestions inspired by the 18th century are combined with Punteggiato fabric designed by
Gio Ponti in 1934: essential and geometrical pattern softened by the preciousness of smooth velvet and balanced
tones.
“The project seeing Rubelli's fabrics, in
particular precious lampas and refined embroideries, in the unusual role of
stylish footwear designed by Santoni is the tangible
example of a successful partnership between two major entrepreneurial Italian excellences ”adds Alessandro
Favaretto Rubelli, President of the company. “The incredible know-how made of craftsmanship but also of constant
technological innovation together with true passion are the core values of
their work. The only way the value of knowledge meets
the value of emotion, and this also makes the difference.”
Exquisitely eccentric textures combined with extra luxurious leathers in three models for men and three for women: collection divertissement for an audience of connoisseurs.
Available from December in selected Santoni
boutiques and at the online shop with a special packaging featuring Rubelli’s fabrics. Price upon request.
Selected Santoni Boutiques:
