Fashionable women around the world worship the cult of Pedro Garcia. Now in its third generation of shoe purveyors dedicated to gorgeous footwear, the brand’s roots date back to 1925, when grandpa Garcia founded it as a children’s shoes’ workshop in Alicante. By the 1960s, the label evolved to become Vogue-worthy and is today run by the founder’s grandchildren, Pedro and Mila. Together, they have honed the brand’s design philosophy to epitomise the idea of “experimental luxury” while embracing an avant-garde vision. The unmistakable signature frayed satin edging or dazzling Swarovski clusters are the strikingly detailed finishing touches that distinguish the shoes as a step beyond. From the moment a pair of Pedro Garcia shoes is conceived, 89 people take part in the process. Each pair is a model of opposition, a hybrid of contrasting materials. And, whether based on excess or minimalism, Pedro Garcia creations are always intelligently researched and impeccably executed.
