**_BERLUTI _

**MAISON***:

- Berluti has been making shoes for the elegant man since it was founded.

The Duke of Windsor, Jean Cocteau, Andy WarholThe greatest clients walked through the House's doors, each one passionate about and captivated by the timeless elegance of these exceptional shoes, elevated to the rank of works of art.

Offbeat classicism and technical virtuosity are keynotes of the House, while its character remains the same.

Its story began at the end of the 19th century, when a young 30-year-old Italian brought his creative energy to Paris in order to practice his craft as a master shoemaker.

He named his first model, a lace-up shoe, after himself, Alessandro, and the House took his surname, Berluti.

Since then, every generation of the House has cultivated exceptional savoir-faire in the mastery of form and working with leather and patinas.

The result is models that are incomparably elegant and comfortable.

But more than simply a prestigious shoemaker, Berluti has always represented a certain art de vivre.

Naturally, new areas of expression have been explored: leather goods in 2005, and in 2011 a ready-to-wear line was launched.
