KPop star G-Dragon, who has an immense and devoted Asian following, is collaborating with Italian luxury footwear designer Giuseppe Zanotti to create a line of glitter-accented men's shoes.
Giuseppe Zanotti is eager to expand into the Asian market and is harnessing the influence of the notorious KPop star G-Dragon to do so. The collaborative collection is inspired by the KPop star's elegant, imaginative and androgynous sense of style. The shoe collection will include a unisex loafer and a lace-up shoe. Both versions of the G-Dragon-inspired shoes will come in black with a multi-colored glitter finish.
Of the collaboration, the internationally renowned KPop star says, "These shoes turned out exactly how I wanted. It’s not just girls or women who get excited and worked up over pretty shoes."
