Behind the Design: Promise Ballet Flat

 

Danielle and the Promise Flat

 

Ever wonder what it's like to design this season's must-have shoes? From trend research to sketches to samples, Senior Design Director Danielle Kalish and her team puts their passion for must-have style and comfort into every pair.



Here, Danielle takes us behind the design of one of our newest ballet flat for women: the Promise. With a hidden wedge for a flattering extra lift, softly pointed toe, and unmatched comfort, you’ll love wearing these women's ballet flats all season long.

What makes this ballet flat special?

“For the Promise ballet flat, we really wanted to give the woman who wants to wear a high heel but just doesn’t that day, the same look and feel. So, we brought that heel look down low on a little soft pointed toe ballet flat. We love the envelope folding detail at the toe for a mixed-material touch, and it just feels really feminine and flattering on everyone’s foot.”

How would you recommend styling it?

“I recommend styling the Promise with a great little ankle pant or even a straight 
leg-denim would be great. It has a little hidden wedge, so it would still give you a little bit of a lift, more than a normal flat. I think it looks best, definitely for me, with pants.”
