The 'Cappa Blade Starsway' sandal is the latest showstopper from Italian luxury label Casadei, launching this August as an exclusive in-store offering at Harrods and Selfridges in London. Featuring the brand’s signature Blade heel reimagined with dazzling crystal embellishments and sleek architectural curves, the style epitomizes high-impact glamour with sculptural finesse. The new silhouette reflects creative director Cesare Casadei’s commitment to crafting statement pieces that balance boldness with elegance. Designed in Italy, the Cappa Blade Starsway sits at the intersection of innovation and timeless luxury.
