Founded by Azzedine Alaïa, today the maison, under the direction of Pieter Mulier, continues the revered couturier's uncompromising vision which champions masterful cuts that accentuate the female form. The house is perhaps best known for its statement bags, edgy footwear, and laser-cut accessories. A high-octane iteration of the classic thong sandal, this metallic pair is designed with a slingback strap that's made to sit away from the foot.
