The satus of the shoemaking trade in the age of consumerism

The craft lost its appeal for a time, but today it is gradually making a comeback. For people, manual, creative work provides a space to regenerate and slow down for a moment in a world that is increasingly fast-paced. The author sees craft in the contemporary world as one of the tools for creating sustainable design. With her collection, she breaks down stereotypes of handmade and bespoke footwear, which is usually associated mainly with male wearers and also makers.
