Two Italian designers partnered to create a gorgeous ballerina flat shoe that was inspired by Cinderella’s infamous glass slippers. Kartell, a furniture designer, and Normaluisa, a fashion designer, created the design together.
Kartell designers use plastics and injection-molding technology in many of their designs. And Normaluisa’s latest clothing line was inspired by Cinderella’s story. It’s a partnership made in Disney heaven.
The flats are available in a transparent and opaque color combination or two opaque color combination. Added benefit: By nature, plastic shoes are rain-proof!
