Put a spring into your step in this pair of strappy, knotty heels from Liu.Jo
Article:
Strut out in style in a knotty new pair of heels from Liu Jo, an Italian fashion chain now in Singapore.
Featuring knotted straps in contrasting colours and a cute metal pendant at the buckle, this suede sandal speaks of fun cocktail nights and carefree Saturday brunches.
If you’re puzzled by the Chinese-sounding name of this Italian brand, there’s actually a sentimental tale behind it.
Founder Marco Marchi explains that “Liu” was in fact, his nickname for his first love Luisa, whom he met “many, many summers ago”; “Jo” was her pet name for him. Even though the pair had never met ever again after that summer, Marchi had such fond memories of their romance that he now uses “Liu.Jo” as the name of his fashion label. So now you know.
