ROGER VIVIER: PILGRIM SEXYThe pilgrim’s path is known to be long and arduous – an ancient trail past the stations of the cross. So surely the shoes to suit would be flat and stout? But the Roger Vivier version of the concept has been updated as Pilgrim Sexy – a high-heeled sandal with a sturdy ankle buckle that offers what designer Bruno Frisoni calls “a casual sensuality”. Although the Vivier collection labelled Summer Lights included classic updates on the three-dimensional Prismatic architecture, Bruno was also in a mood for tribal inspirations. The Mask collection, with its design variations on native art, included ultra-sophisticated high-heeled sandals with feathers at the ankle and that particular meld of raw and refined last seen in Yves Saint Laurent's glory years. The many aspects of the Roger Vivier collection included Fifties elegance for Miss Viv, the modernism of Le Corbusier and bags in a rainbow of sequins giving the effect of a three-dimensional play on light and shade.
