"Maximilian Davis is on something of a Twenties trip with his work at Ferragamo - that period has inspired his last three collections for the brand, fittingly founded in 1927. As we enter the second half of the Twenties in our own century - marked here by the Spring/Summer 2026 season - that backwards glance makes sense; as does the fact that, unlike anything earlier, the clothes of that time feel vintage rather than antique."
"These Ferragamo mules nod to the era, sporting an art deco-inspired abstraction of a flower on a blunted square satin toe. That device could equally be a burst of flame, or some imagined celestial comet, or just a gesture in embroidery, like a piece of jewellery bedazzling the foot as opposed to an earlobe."
"What you can't see here is their quizzical, quasi-question mark of a curved heel - as if asking, 'why not?' The Ferragamo S-shaped heel mule is available to buy online."
Maximilian Davis continues his exploration of 1920s design for Ferragamo, the luxury brand founded in 1927. The Spring/Summer 2026 collection reflects this era's influence, as vintage Twenties aesthetics resonate with contemporary ideas about attraction and body ideals. Ferragamo mules exemplify this approach, featuring art deco-inspired floral abstractions on blunted square satin toes. These embellishments function as decorative elements, resembling jewelry adorning the foot. The distinctive curved S-shaped heel adds a playful dimension to the design, questioning conventional shoe aesthetics while maintaining wearability and comfort.
