Popular among Overseas Brides: 'Rene Caovilla' ♡
A historic shoe brand from Venice, 'Rene Caovilla'.
Many brides in Japan may have just heard the name for the first time since there are no stores in Japan, but it is a globally loved brand with an 80-year history that is favored by celebrities ♡
Since its founding in 1934, it has continued to attract admiration from brides as one of the high-end shoe brands desired for weddings, alongside Christian Louboutin, Manolo Blahnik, and Jimmy Choo.
In Japan, you can purchase them online from official retailers (returns are free, so it’s安心!) or find pop-up events at department stores, making it fairly accessible.
If you want to wear the best shoes on your wedding day but feel that the standard brands that other brides choose are a bit lacking, this is a shoe brand I would recommend to discerning brides-to-be ♡
The Most Popular Design: Twisted Strap Sandals ♡
The elegant and sexy 'Rene Caovilla' shoes are like jewelry.
Among them, the most selected is this shoe, which symbolizes the brand.
It is a sandal named 'Cleo' characterized by slender straps resembling a snake ♡
The unique design features a snake wrapping around the leg, creating a mesmerizing look.
Achieving the functionality of an ankle strap while having slender straps that perfectly hug the leg requires very high-level craftsmanship.
It is only 'Rene Caovilla', which has inherited Italy's history and tradition, that can shape this elegant design into a shoe.
I understand why overseas brides choose this brand for their bridal shoes ♡
By the way, the snake motif of Cleo is considered a fortunate animal.
In Japan, snakes have long been regarded as embodiments of deities or messengers of gods, symbolizing the birth of life, a bright future, prosperity of descendants, and family harmony.
In the world of feng shui, they are thought to possess eternal life, vitality, and regenerative power.
While the mention of "snake" might evoke a slightly scary image, it is actually a lucky motif that will bring happiness to your future married life ♡
A Sneak Peek into the 'Rene Caovilla' Cleo Series Design!
The 'Cleo' series features impressive designs.
There is a rich lineup of colors, embellishments, and heel heights.
(There are even mule types without open toes!)
This one has a sophisticated design with silver and black stones lined on the straps.
This Cleo features a gradient of nuance colors including green, yellow, and pink.
The delicate embellishments sparkle beautifully ♡
The striking red sandals are also stunning.
They would look stylish peeking out from a pure white dress ♡
A colorful flower made of colored stones blooms across the entire strap design ♡
Bold yet cute!
A luxurious design with crystals dangling like a chandelier.
If you wear bridal shoes like this, you'll want to show off your feet in a midi or fishtail dress.
Upon researching, I found that this was the most expensive design, selling for 234,000 yen.
