g set up and launch new start up brands. One of the highlights of Polina’s career lies in designing a pair of shoes for one of her clients, which were worn by a member of the Royal Family during the Royal Wedding in 2011. Polina launched her footwear brand with the aim to create footwear she always wanted to wear and could never find. “ I embarked on a mission to create shoes that were beautifully crafted, elegant yet with a touch of fun. I knew I wanted them to be showstoppers, so people would notice them straight away.”
Polina’s inspirations come from her passion to travel, to explore flea markets, to discover unique details in the art pieces and from her love for the fashion history. All Polina Magiy’s shoes are beautifully handcrafted in an artisan factory in Italy, where Polina herself handpicks only the best quality leathers, textile fixtures and materials. Each shoe is carefully assembled by highly qualified workers in an artisan workshop, where Polina travels to on a regular basis. Please contact us for more information. Polina designs for free spirited women, who have a big sense of individuality and identity, who love taking risk and are not afraid to stand out from the crowd.
