  Roger Vivier is one of the 20th-century's great shoe designers. Appointed as shoe designer for Christian Dior in 1953, he designed some of the most influential shoes of the period, from 18th-century style mules to chisel toes, circular diamante heels, wedges, bead-embroidered shoes and African sandals. This is a tribute to the work of the shoe designer, who still produces two collections a year, from fairytale embroidery to transparent plastic, from metallic kid to metal stocking.
