Story & heritage

Simone Rocha launched her graduate collection in 2010 after training at Dublin's National College of Art and Design and Central Saint Martins; this piece sits inside the brand's world of romantic silhouettes, pearls, bows, flowers and grounded utility.

Materials & craft

The brand's classic sporty ballerina pump gets a subtle update with an additional bow at the band. It features a more tactical sole, a contrast to suede upper.

How to choose & style

A natural partner for long tutu skirts and socks, it also makes dresses feel less precious because the sole reads sporty rather than dainty.
