The partnership began when they met and found their aesthetics were a natural fit: they share a love of conceptual design, technical expertise, and a commitment to their loyal clientele. The Fall/Winter 2021 collection, the inaugural collection with Mr. Zanotti, draws inspiration from the Vauthier runway and the brand DNA. Bold, confident, and feminine, these unique designs create glamorous moments reminiscent of the 70’s and 80’s nightlife and delivers the definition of the modern Parisian women.

“For this collaboration I wanted to create a very distinctive selection of footwear that felt like a natural extension of my collection and also which complements the confident personalities of the Alexandre Vauthier woman. The women who wear my collections around the world are both sensual and powerful and this collaboration with Giuseppe Zanotti was made for these bold and inspiring women. Giuseppe understood this perfectly and together we took distinctive details of my couture collection and interpreted them into this footwear collection.” - Alexandre Vauthier

“Working with Alexandre has felt very natural; right from the beginning I’ve realized we speak to the same woman with our work and I believe you’ll see this energy running from the clothes to the shoes and vice versa.” - Giuseppe Zanotti
