Charlie Number Five partnered with Manolo Blahnik to create a bold and innovative presentation for the Autumn/Winter 2016 collection. The “Hide and Seek” theme featured eight exquisite shoes paired with custom artworks, each inspired by the intricate patterns and ornaments of the footwear, seamlessly blending art and fashion.
To craft the artworks, each shoe was meticulously photographed in the studio. Fragments from these images were skillfully pieced together to form intricate collages, serving as the foundation for the designs. These collages visually captured the essence of the shoes, enhancing their aesthetic appeal.
The collection promoted viewer interaction by allowing each shoe to “hide” within its corresponding artwork when placed in front of it. This playful and engaging experience invited viewers to explore and discover the artistry behind each piece.
