Ottolinger and PUMA work in collaboration and some of these works are seen on the runway show recently, showcasing the fashion imprint's Fall/Winter 2023 range. The show was led by Christa Bösch and Cosima Gadient and it highlights outerwear with shredded dresses, ceramic bags, and more.
The PUMA collaboration highlights shoes and bags as Ottolinger-themed prints were seen along the side of the patent handbags and dual-branding found itself on the straps. The footwear ranged from high-tops made from leather materials or gilded boots that go up to the knee. Additional details include the spiked sole units and straps that wrap around the shoe, which are true to Ottolinger's in-house design. The duo invites fans to "stay tuned" for another upcoming drop.
