Kartell x .normaluisa: Glue Cinderella Ballet Flat by Brian Fichtner
Kartell, one of the world's most innovative plastics manufacturers, recently teamed up with Italian fashion brand .normaluisa to create the Glue Cinderella ballerina flat. The design takes advantage of Kartell's extensive experience in plastics and injection-molding technology, to create a supple form marked by a two-tone color scheme that will be available in opaque/opaque or transparent/ opaque versions. The playful design comes with the added bonus of being waterproof, so there's little need to worry when the spring showers come raining down.
Glue Cinderella will be available for $135 through Kartell flagship stores beginning 15 March 2009.
