We all have those pairs of shoes we can turn to again and again. The kind that are endlessly versatile and, most importantly, make us feel like the best versions of ourselves. At Malone Souliers, we craft timeless shoes that will look as good in decades to come as they do on the first day you wear them. This philosophy is true of all of our collections, but it is undoubtedly our Classics that take this sentiment to the next level. Making up this pantheon of love-forever silhouettes is Maureen, Marion and Maisie. Returning each season in a number of elegant guises, these four styles embody Malone Souliers’ inimitable aesthetic – think curved lines, signature straps, and thoughtful details aplenty.
When designing a new collection, our co-creative directors, Coco and Valerio, will take their time to cherry-pick the perfect fabrics, finishes, and embellishments for each of these Classic styles, constantly refreshing and reimagining them. Of course, for a pair of shoes to go the distance, they must be made to exacting standards. At Malone Souliers, everything is crafted in Italy in small, family-run factories where skilled artisans work meticulously to produce an end result that is of the highest quality.
We are also proud to be a certified member of the Leather Working Group, an international organisation made up of stakeholders across the leather supply chain, working to promote environmental best practice within leather manufacturing and related industries. We use only the finest hides, trusting that they will wear and age beautifully.
Get to Know Our Classic Styles
Let’s take a closer look at how Maureen, Marion and Maisie have earned their place as some of Malone Souliers’ most treasured silhouettes.
The Maureen
Leading the charge, our most iconic style has to be Maureen. Its foot-flattering, curved silhouette has been making waves since its launch in 2015. In the years since, Maureen has taken on countless iterations, finding its way into the wardrobes of some of the world’s most stylish women. Whether as a flat mule or heeled pump, the shoe’s distinctive double-strap detailing, pointed toe, and undulating lines mean it is truly unmistakeable.
The Marion
Marion is Malone Souliers’ sophisticated take on the ever-chic slingback. Once again, flowing, organic lines complement the foot’s natural shape, while our signature strap draws attention to a pointed toe. As ever, the aesthetic is just one piece of the puzzle – Marion’s adjustable heel strap ensures a tailored and comfortable fit. Whether you opt for the kitten heel or stiletto versions, one thing is for sure: Marion will never lose its appeal.
The Maisie
Maisie is a two-part mule, distinguished by its sculpted almond shape and gently curved, V-cut vamp. Until recently, a braided elastic strap was another defining feature, but this has been swapped out for a twisted satin version in some iterations, serving to highlight Maisie’s versatility. Like all our ‘Classics’, Maisie is imagined as a flat, kitten heel, or high heeled mule. From day-to-night, it’s a style you can rely on for an air of femininity and grace.
