VALENTINO GARAVANI

Rockstud Metallic Leather Ballet Flats In Gold

Valentino Garavani knows how to make classic designs feel entirely its own - closely recalling traditional ballet slippers, these flats are traced with the label's instantly recognizable 'Rockstuds'. They're made from platinum leather that's folded at the rounded toe and have a padded bow embellishment and straps that cross-over at the ankle.

A symbol of the label's influence since 2010, the Rockstud was first created as a nod to the bugnatofeature which is a popular facet of Italian architecture. Since then, Valentino Garavani has worked on exploring the many ways to display this feature atop its vast shoe selection, but none of these attempts have been as timeless as the studded piping shown on this pair of leather ballet flats.

Valentino Garavani's latest Rockstud-embellished shoes are designed for dancing all night long – or pirouetting, for that matter. Inspired by classic ballerina pumps worn by tutu-dressed dancers, they're made from metallic leather, adorned with a tonal bow at the square toe, and stitched with straps that criss-cross over your foot, fastening around the ankles.
