Nicholas Kirkwood Takes Pearls From Demure To Bold

Nicholas Kirkwood Pearl Collection Fall 2016

August 24, 2016. Leave a Comment

Founded in 2005, footwear designer Nicholas Kirkwood from the jump challenged conventional shoe design practices with innovative shapes and use of materials. Never designing from a place of caution, his shoes are known for their ability to turn heads.

One of the highlights of Kirkwood’s fall offerings, aptly named “Collection Perles,” is the use of the demure pearl to create shoes that combine femininity and futuristic edge. Whether pumps, ankle boosts or loafers, the silhouettes within the collection are what could be deemed as “classic,” and yet, Kirkwood through pearl embellishment and other design flourishes manages to add his special sauce, bringing each shoe to another level.

The Nicholas Kirkwood’s fall collection is now available on Net-A-Porter.

For fall winter 2025 KNWLS opted to forego a runwa For fall winter 2025 KNWLS opted to forego a runway show and present their collection in a styled lookbook.

Taking inspiration from a feminine Y2K aesthetic, the collection embodies designers Charlotte Knowles and Alexandre Arsenault’s ability to balance sexy and cool. 

In an interview with Vogue, the pair shared that they are currently working on a new design director role in Europe and have several other projects in the pipeline, including another denim project, a collaboration with a jewelry brand, and a menswear capsule for an e-commerce site.

Commenting on the lookbook styling, they shared, "Obviously in the lookbooks it's styled in a quite extreme way, but if you break it down into individual pieces, we've been thinking about merchandising and the customer more than ever before," said Arsenault. "We've seen the team in the studio wearing the pieces differently too, and we've taken that into account. It's a nice challenge to say: 'Okay, we want to make a sweatshirt, but it still has this silhouette or wash or rib detail that makes it feel really Knwls."
