About Roger Vivier
Roger Vivier was one of the twentieth century’s most influential shoe designers, celebrated for transforming footwear into sophisticated objects of fashion and design. His work became particularly associated with elegant silhouettes, experimental heel shapes and decorative buckles.
The Roger Vivier Bronze Gold Pumps reflect this approach beautifully. The combination of metallic patent leather, geometric chisel toe and prominent silver buckle creates a shoe that feels both architectural and glamorous. Vivier’s designs have been worn by royalty, film stars and internationally recognised figures, making his name an important part of twentieth-century footwear history.
Today, the Roger Vivier fashion house continues the designer’s legacy of distinctive luxury footwear. Visit the Roger Vivier official website to discover the contemporary collections.
Did You Know?
Roger Vivier is particularly famous for the Pilgrim buckle, one of the most recognisable decorative motifs in luxury footwear. The designer also helped popularise dramatic new heel constructions during the twentieth century and collaborated with leading Parisian couture houses.
This shoe from the Imelda Marcos collection demonstrates the importance of the buckle within Vivier’s design vocabulary. Against the bronze-gold patent leather, the silver buckle becomes a focal point, complemented by the metallic lining and sharply defined chisel toe.
Why Collect This Roger Vivier Shoe Print?
The Roger Vivier Bronze Gold Pumps print combines several fascinating elements: an internationally important footwear designer, an unusual surviving shoe from the Imelda Marcos collection and an original painted interpretation by A. J. Green.
The bronze-gold patent leather and silver detailing make this one of the more dramatically metallic images in the collection, while the strong silhouette gives the artwork considerable presence when framed.
Purchasing the print also supports the wider humanitarian purpose behind Sole Support, turning an image associated with extraordinary luxury into artwork that helps children living in extreme poverty.
