Chapter Three: Y/Project x Melissa Collection

Parisian fashion brand Y/Project presented the third chapter of the collaboration with the Brazilian shoe brand lemon balmcaptured by a fashion photographer Arnaud Lajeunenie with the scenography by Justine Ponthieux, For the latest collection, designer Glenn Martens and Melissa were inspired by Rococo porcelain vases in the shape of miniature shoes. Release features new Court Boot, Court Slide and Classic Point Mule shoes in four new colorways

The Y/PROJECT x Melissa shoe collaboration is a nod to Victorian vases, profusely ornate and embellished, fused with the popular British tradition of porcelain vases in the shape of miniature court shoes, distorting the idea of ​​preciousness. Y/PROJECT’s design philosophy has always been to mix and fold historical references and pop culture, past and present, high and low. This eco-friendly collaboration reflects one girl’s dream of wearing a crystal shoe, but with all the comfort that Melissa is famous for. – of Y/Project
