Martine Rose delivers her new seasonal collection designed for the Spring/Summer 2024 season dubbed Coming Up Roses including a Clarks collaboration to truly highlight a British influence. The inspiration stems from the British community, its nightlife, and its culture, creating items that a 90s raver would reach for.
The capsule takes familiar classics and gives them a refresh. This includes the iconic Oxford silhouette and the Loafer, which have been reworked to match the designer's brand language. Some of the updated accents include snakeskin prints or the addition of buckles to add some hardware to the silhouette. The loafer style is detailed with a chunky wedge heel and also features a signature Penny strap that goes across the vamp.
