NEW - have you seen the new short film about one of our shoes being made? Shoes with Stories The Hetty Rose label makes shoes. The collection is based on a theory of re-using and re-working vintage materials in a creative and sustainable way, hand making gorgeous, feminine shoes to fit. These materials are primarily vintage Japanese kimono fabrics: relics of a disappearing world, saturated in significance and hidden meanings. The colours and folds signify various seasons, occasion, status and personal taste of the wearer. The designer hand selects the most exquisite antique fabrics to use as uppers for shoes to create unique handmade footwear. The designs are simple, yet provocative, designed to make the foot appear more attractive. The collaboration of colours, materials, service and directional design result in unique, wearable footwear. Contact Hetty directly if you would like to order or stock our shoes. 
Henrietta Rose Samuels graduated from the London College of Fashion with a degree in Footwear Design & Development (Cordwainers). During her time at university, Henrietta also gained an industrial placement for one year of study with footwear designer Georgina Goodman. She has worked in London and Italy for handmade shoe companies. Henrietta loves: her workshop, sushi, circles, colour and milky tea. Our Shoes Write a Blog! Shoes with Stories - born out of the idea that each pair of shoes created by designer Hetty Rose, has its own story, the Shoes With Stories blog was invented. All 3 characters were inspired by the beautiful handmade shoes; Mika, Saya and Yuki. Follow the different lives of each character on our blog and keep up to date with what they get up to: http://shoeswithstories.wordpress.com
