“My designs are created with the same philoposhy that permeates my life…” says Elisa Ferare of her eponymous shoe line, “blending the old with the new, the traditional with the edgy, the textured with the smooth, fantasy with reality. I believe in no suffering for fashion… I abhor trends… it is with pride that I say my designs are brought to life in America by a small group of artisans who love their craft. I invite you to enjoy the shoes… but keep in mind that they long to stray.”

The EILEEN SHIELDS label was launched in February 2004 and has continued to grow exponentially each season. The label is sold at more than 40 high-end boutiques and department stores across the US, Europe, and Asia – and EILEEN SHIELDS is a featured designer at Harvey Nichols in London, Dublin and Edinburgh.
Born in New York, Eileen Shields grew up in Dublin, Ireland, and graduated from the National College of Art and Design, Dublin. She has been living and working in New York since 1988 and was, for more than a decade, footwear designer for Donna Karan. Eileen was a key player in launching and building the DKNY footwear line, including Men’s and Women’s, and was responsible for the innovative D by DKNY line, nominated for Best New Line at the VH1 Fashion Awards.
The EILEEN SHIELDS label is a transatlantic venture – Eileen opened her own flagship store and gallery, ‘5 Scarlet Row’ in the Old City district of Dublin in September 2004. 5 Scarlet Row was created in collaboration with renowned curator/gallerist Vaari Claffey and is the flagship store to showcase the entire EILEEN SHIELDS collection. Her collections have received highly favorable press including features in British Vogue, Elle Magazine, Nylon, Oprah, and Real Simple among many others. Shield was also named “One of Our Favorite New Faces in Fashion” by Lucky Magazine. Her designs have been seen on many celebrities such as Halle Berry, Eva Longoria, Samantha Morton, Courtney Cox Arquette, Drew Barrymore and Andie MacDowell.

Lucchese Boot Co.
description:
THE BEST TAKES TIME… No other boot fits the human foot like a Lucchese boot, thanks to Lucchese’s original design, which remains the only one of its kind in bootmaking today. And because of a continuing commitment to this rare art, the making of a Lucchese boot takes time. From the careful selection and cutting of the finest grade of leathers, to the hand-driven lemon wood pegs and meticulous finishing of a boot, each step is considered critical to our finished product. Our boot designs may demand more money, time and skill, but when you slip your foot into a Lucchese boot, you’ll know why we insist on only the finest. “The final truth is that throughout the whole boot factory, the quality chain is no stronger than its weakest link.” – Sam Lucchese Jr.

LaDuca Shoes
description:
When Phil LaDuca created LaDuca Shoes more than a decade ago, no one dreamed of the notoriety that would soon follow. The shoes now appear on nearly every Broadway star and starlet from Eartha Kitt to Meryl Streep to the finest gypsies dancing on any world stage.
His shoes star in Wicked, Chicago, The Producers, Mamma Mia, Hairspray and dance their way through the Radio City Christmas Spectacular on the feet of The Rockettes. They’ve been on tour with Gwen Stefani, Bette Midler, Cher, Aerosmith and held leading ladies Brooke Shields, Catherine Zeta Jones and Uma Thurman as they glide down the red carpet.
This is the shoe that revolutionized the industry with its flexibility and comfort. The beauty of LaDuca, which originates in theatrical design, trumpets the fact that Broadway stars and the movies don’t go out of fashion—they create it.
