‘Opulence’ and ‘sophistication’ are two words commonly associated with the Fabergé of footwear, Roger Vivier, with their ornate confections, making it the go-to luxury shoe house for any woman looking to celebrate milestones in her life. Roger Vivier created shoes that were inspired by the world of theatre and music, and his legacy continues under the house’s Creative Director, Gherardo Felloni, evident in the recent whimsical Hotel Vivier Cinémathèque presentation and The Fluffy Room, which both showcased theatrical elements in a new-age digital format.

Today, one of the key designs of the house would be the Flower Strass, launched in 2016 that featured a satin shoe handcrafted by artisans in Italy. The highlight was none other than the bejewelled flowers decorating the metal buckle in shiny crystals which has become one of the signature elements at Roger Vivier. Over the years, the Flower Strass led to the creation of exciting new styles such as the Broche Vivier Buckle Mules, one that comes in all-new colours like Pink and Yellow for Fall-Winter 2020.

The shoe comprises a stunning crystal buckle sitting atop a smooth satin upper, making for the perfect pair of slip-ons to live out your fantasies. It even comes with an angled heel reminiscent of the famed Roger Vivier Comma, with a height of 4.5 cm that classifies it as a pair of mules, rather than the taller heels which typically range from 7 to 10 cm.

Intrigued? You will find RV boutiques within Marina Bay Sands and Takashimaya Department Store, where the Broche Vivier Buckle Mules (SGD2050) are currently available in sizes ranging from 35 to 42. Leave the stilettos at home and switch to a comfortable pair of mules, especially with the shiny crystal buckles that are guaranteed to sparkle and shine wherever you go.
