A recent graduate from the BA (Hons) Footwear Product Design and Development Course at  Cordwainers , London College of Fashion, Helen Furber has developed a unique shoe that she says

….is driven by the ethos that sustainability and design aesthetics are both equally  important. Personal vision is a sustainably & technology-focused design approach, without aesthetic compromise.

Furber’s shoe named Icica is a luxury concept shoe that meshes technology with an eco-friendly sensibility.

We at MADE love that not only did Furber create a shoe that is fabulous and aesthetically pleasing but she has considered the shoe’s after life once the owner (heaven forbid) no longer wears them. Made with materials, such as, organic leather dyed with a vegetable based dye, and a bioresin heel this shoe not only looks good but can be dismantled for recycling.
