Swiss luxury footwear brand INUIKII has tapped endlessly creative 24-year-old knitwear designer Niamh Emily Foster for its latest collaboration, delivering a collection of kitschy knits.
After two years of conceptualization, the limited-edition Spring/Summer 2023 collection features candy-colored hand-knitted sweaters and sneakers, tenderly crafted from yarn, mohair and leather, resulting in utterly unique pieces.
"I discovered Niamh's art on Mia Regan's Instagram and immediately fell in love with the raw handcraft and the sassiness of Niamh's designs. We always had this idea in mind to support young artists, their energetic spirit and unexpected way of thinking. To start this kind of project era and this new kind of HERE I AM -- which is one of the INUIKII pillars -- with Niamh, made perfect sense," founder Cinzia Maag shares in an exclusive press release.
Tennis sneakers elevated by exaggerated platforms are accented with warm, orange-toned leg-warmers, joining an abundantly striped matching sweater. Priced at £194 -£256 (approx. $242 USD -- $320 USD), the special INUKII x Niamh Emily Foster collaboration is available on the footwear brand's website.
