Supra is one of the many brands that has launched officially licensed Beauty and the Beast fashions, and its interpretation takes the form of elegant velvet sneakers for women and children.
While the sneakers, especially the matching pairs for kids, do not boast the usual obvious ties to the Disney franchise, they instead opt for a sophisticated style that celebrates elements of the Baroque period.
As many of the costumes and set designs take inspiration from era, the Skytop and Cubana styles boast luxurious velvet as a material and ornate floral patterning. As a result, women and children are able to wear modern footwear styles that take inspiration from the live-action film, without leaving them feeling as though they are wearing a costume from the live-action Beauty and the Beast world.
