Penelope Chilvers
Penelope Chilvers designed her first collection seven years ago, following a spell in Spain, where she spotted the fashion potential of the traditional riding boot. She has won renown with her beautifully made shoes, including the equestrian boot with which she made her name, sought-after urban snow boots, the Dandy slipper, and summer espadrilles made according to traditional Catalan methods. She now offers a bespoke online service; her designs are also sold at Selfridges, Liberty and Harrods, and fashion stores worldwide.
