Vivier is the man who invented stilettos and the ground-breaking curved “comma” heel. Vivier died, aged 90, in 1998. But his spirit lives on in a brand that is now stronger than ever, thanks to creative director Bruno Frisoni. In 2001, Frisoni was asked to inject modernity into the rich heritage of the brand. First came sightings of the Belle Vivier buckle pump in fashion magazines. Then, new stores created a frisson of excitement, in Paris in 2004 and London in 2006.
Scarlett Johansson, Imelda Marcos, Jackie O and the Queen have nothing in common, but you would be wrong. What they all have, along with countless other discerning women around the world, are Roger Vivier shoes.
