What makes the perfect summer shoe?

For me, it’s all about ease and sophistication—something I can slip on and off effortlessly, because who doesn’t love the feeling of the warm earth beneath their feet as summer arrives?

But beyond that, I want a shoe that seamlessly complements whatever I choose to wear, whether I’m going for a laid-back look or something more glamorous. Is this balance achievable?

I believe we've perfected it with Gena. Named after Hollywood icon Gena Rowlands, Gena is designed to fit high on the foot to hold you firmly and securely in place, it offers stability without sacrificing style—no awkward slipping or flipping here. 

The subtle detailing, like the beautifully curved front seam (my little trade secret), keeps the design clean and sophisticated. And with an internal platform for added height, you get that boost without any compromises—who doesn’t love a little extra height? (I’m always surprised when I wear flats and remember I’m actually not tall!)

Crafted with a finely hand-stitched sole, a sumptuously padded insole, and an easy-to-wear mid heel that’s both stable and comfortable, Gena is a joy to wear—Jouissance encapsulated.

Gena also provides full foot coverage, including that pesky back of the heel, so you can skip the pedicures and still exude effortless glamour.

Gena is designed to make you feel like the epitome of chic, effortless style. I’m excited to wear mine—my only dilemma is which colour to choose!

• Gold - clean glamour that goes with everything
• Silver - cool and modern
