Dear Shaded Viewers,
Direct from the airport I had the driver pass by the opening for the debut collection designed by creative director Francesco Russo for Sergio Rossi. To emphasize the wearability and beauty of the shoes, a woman was asked to wear the different models under all conditions for a period of two weeks. Hence the idea behind the film where we can watch a variety of the new designs walking through the daily life of a woman. Francesco concentrated on the lightness, wearability and the seduction of the shoes.

Not shown here are two pairs of very sexy platform boots, long and short, and a pair of amazingly beautiful riding boots that will improve with age. The reason that I was so intent on getting to the opening on time was that my most comfortable shoes in life happen to be designed by Sergio Rossi.
Later,
Diane
