Donna Karan Windows Winter 2014 Our Coverage Sponsored by Paul Mayer Attitudes
Paul Mayer's luxuriously, comfortable designs keep women coming back for
multiple -- even dozens -- of pairs. Classic, yet contemporary and always comfortable,
his shoes are an addiction that we highly recommend. A staple of
the Paul Mayer collection is the simple ballet-flat, with true ballerina
construction for a perfect fit that comes in a variety of colors and materials.
A cult favorite is the cozy, a flat with lavender-scent infused soles adding
style and fragrance to collector's closets as Paul's designs emerge in
sophisticated design incarnations season after season in the most incredible
hues, textures and modern innovations in luxury footwear because we know
firsthand how incredibly brilliant he is. Mayer founded the brand in 2004
with partner, Jeff Levy. All shoes in the line are manufactured in Spain’s
Valencia region, along the Mediterranean coast by a skilled staff of 12
artisans. They craft each pair of shoes with an old-world attention to detail
that includes in-house embroidery, quilting and stitching as well as custom
tanned leather. This allows the brand to cater to each retailer’s specific
demands in with timely and consistent alacrity, with orders completed in an
unheard-of 3 to 5 weeks. When not in New
York, Paul can be found traveling to his myriad of stores across the country
meeting his loyal clientele or vacationing in his favorite spot, the Royal Hawaiian on Waikiki Beach.
