As a emerging luxury footwear brand the struggle for visibility and growth is always an issue especially in the age of social media. But that does not mean you stop working it just means you have to work harder and be consistent.  When we were contacted by an editor at British Vogue directly with the opportunity to feature our brand in their new layout that showcases emerging brands we were ecstatic.
