The New Evening Shoes
Velvet, paillettes and a touch of light
Some shoes are made for everyday life. Others are made for those moments when you want to make a little more of an entrance.
For the new season, Thierry Rabotin explores the evening mood through rich textures, deep colours and subtle touches of light. Velvet in intense red and classic black, shimmering paillettes and golden details bring a more special feeling to familiar silhouettes — without losing the ease and wearability that define the brand.
Qua Red VelvetQUA: THE CLASSIC PUMP, REVISITED
The pump is one of those silhouettes that never really leaves the wardrobe. It simply changes with the mood.
For the new season, Qua appears in luxurious velvet, available in both deep red and classic black. The two colours create completely different impressions: red brings warmth and personality, while black keeps the look timeless and sophisticated.
Wear them with a long evening dress, a sharp suit or something much simpler. Velvet does the rest.
Qua Black VelvetQUA BLACK, RED & A LITTLE LIGHT
What connects these new styles is not a single occasion, but a way of dressing.
They are shoes for dinners, celebrations, evenings in the city and all those moments when you simply feel like wearing something a little more special.
Paillettes for light.
Velvet for depth.
Red for character.
Black for everything else.
And, as always at Thierry Rabotin, they are made in Italy with the attention to detail and the flexible construction that have always been part of the brand's identity. The Sofia model, for example, features a leather lining and a 1.5 cm EVA heel and is handcrafted in Italy.
Because an evening shoe should look special — but it should still feel like you.
Soffy Black and Gold
Soffy Red VelvetSOFFY: RED VELVET, BLACK & GOLD
Velvet has a way of making even the simplest silhouette feel special.
Soffy Red Velvet brings the depth and richness of deep red velvet, while Soffy Black & Gold Microfiber plays with the contrast between black and a luminous golden detail. Both versions share the same easy, feminine silhouette and a low 1.5 cm heel, making them particularly versatile for occasions that call for something different.
Red velvet is bold without being excessive. Black and gold is timeless with just the right amount of shine.
Two different moods, the same idea: evening shoes that don't need to shout to be noticed.
Sofia Black PaillettesSOFIA: A LITTLE SPARKLE
Black, but never ordinary.
Sofia Black Paillettes brings a touch of light to the classic black shoe, with a shimmering textile upper that catches the light with every step. Its low 1.5 cm heel keeps the silhouette easy to wear, while the all-over paillettes give it an unmistakably evening attitude.
It is the kind of shoe that can transform a simple black dress, but also works beautifully with a more relaxed look — a pair of tailored trousers, denim or a velvet jacket.
A little sparkle can go a long way.
