Design, Fashion: united nude

Why do women have an obsession with shoes? Is it because they always fit? Or is it because they complete an outfit, or are they considered the modern-day sculpture? Adding to the temptation of buying more shoes is United Nude’s range of obscure heels, flats and wedges. The ‘Mobius’ shoe was the brand’s first design and has proven to be a completely new shoe silhouette. Conceptually the shoe is a mobius band (an object with one surface and one edge) where a single strip forms, at once, the sole, heel, foot-bed and upper. Its ‘Mono-Jane’ shoe is a solid wedge, all-in-one shoe made from lightweight rubber with an adjustable leather strap. And its ‘Stealth’ shoe is inspired by the straight lines and styling of the Stealth F117 fighter plane. However the Stealth shoe is made for an alternative purpose: the celebration of life and the sexiness of women. United Nude has established itself as an iconic shoe brand that draws on the same inspiration for the design of its shoes just as an architect or industrial designer would. Clear in concept, innovation and elegance, United Nude’s range of shoes is not about to end a woman’s love affair with shoes.
