London-based Dutch product designer Marloes ten Bhömer who studied at the London College of Fashion and the Royal College of Art produces the most eye-catching and swoon worthy shoes. What makes Ms. Bhömer’s shoes so different is that she researches and works with materials, forms and construction methods that are rarely seen in shoe design. What’s more is that she works with our favorite friend origami in creating some of her couture shoes. You can also visit her at the Virtual Shoe Museum.
The first special edition MARLOESTENBHOMER® shoe will be available to order very soon. If you would like to be amongst the first to know about the launch, please email her!

I am not a shoe person but those red ones are quite special!!!
very cute! although i wouldn’t necessarily wear them, … rather, i would use them as a decoration for my living room! definitely.
I love the red shoes! And I would TOTALLY wear them with a black cocktail dress around Christmas.
