VINCE CAMUTO SIGNATURE
WORKING FOR VINCE CAMUTO WAS A HIGHLIGHT IN MY CAREER. HE WAS A TRUE FOOTWEAR LEGEND AND VISIONARY. HE CHOSE ME TO HEAD UP HIS SIGNATURE COLLECTION BEGINNING IN 2012 AND I CONTINUED TO ACT AS DESIGN DIRECTOR UNTIL HIS PASSING IN 2015. I ALSO WAS FORTUNATE TO WORK ALONGSIDE KARI SIGERSON OF SIGERSON MORRISON WHO JOINED THE BRAND AS CREATIVE DIRECTOR IN 2013. SHE HAD ALWAYS BEEN ONE OF MY IDOLS IN THE FOOTWEAR INDUSTRY, AND SHE TAUGHT ME IMMENSELY, FROM MAKING LASTS IN ITALY TO MERCHANDISING COLLECTIONS BY COLOR AND MATERIAL. HER AESTHETIC CONTINUES TO BE AN INSPIRATION TO ME TODAY.
