Shoe lovers had the opportunity to discover first-hand the shoemaking process for Italian luxury brand Salvatore Ferragamo’s signature design, the Varina. A master craftsman was flown in from Florence, Italy for an exclusive showcase, The Art of Shoemaking. The shoemaking demonstration kicked off with a private cocktail event at Rustan’s Shangri-La. A public showcase was held at the Salvatore Ferragamo stores at Greenbelt 4, Rustan’s Makati and Newport Mall, respectively.
