Story & heritage
Alaïa’s US store gives La Ballerine a dedicated category, while NET-A-PORTER describes Alaïa ballet flats as among the market’s most sought-after. SheerLuxe also points to the house’s mesh ballet pumps as part of Alaïa’s recent cultural momentum.
Materials & craft
The official fishnet ballet flat is made in Italy with a fishnet textile and patent-leather upper, buckle strap, rubber sole, lamb-leather lining, and a construction Alaïa says is inspired by classical Japanese shoes.
How to choose & style
Let the transparency do the work: wear with cropped denim, a narrow midi skirt, or an all-black knit dress, and keep hosiery deliberate because the shoe is designed to reveal.
