Now enjoying its second season as a proud member of the ZOOFASHIONS.COM designer showcase, Christian Louboutin continues to astonish with another magnificent collection for Spring/Summer 16. Every piece is designed with the meticulous craftsmanship and incredible attention to fine detail that puts Louboutin’s body of work in the same leagues as the finest art the world has to offer.

When arranged with care and an eye for detail, your summer wardrobe can easily be the most accessible and stylish of all your seasonal wardrobes. While every component of a modern summer outfit deserves an equal share of the limelight, we want to place a special focus on a piece of the puzzle that perhaps doesn’t always receive the plaudits it deserves. The ZOOFASHIONS.COM style team has handpicked a selection of some of our favourite shorts from the season, featuring a varied assortment of fabrics, colourways and graphic designs.

Based in Amsterdam, Filling Pieces was created by designer Guillaume Philibert, a recent architectural design graduate with creative ambitions typical of those from his discipline. An avid admirer of quality footwear, Philibert noted the lack of truly premium footwear on the market at more affordable price points. The emergence of his label is the consequence of his desire to bridge the gap between streetwear and luxury fashion, challenging consumers to appreciate the two classes as companions rather than polar opposites.

Coming in a vast array of styles, shapes and colours, a compelling argument can be made that the backpack is the number one accessory of choice in the contemporary wardrobe.

Louis Leeman has enjoyed an exponential growth in recognition and popularity since the year of its inception. Launched officially in 2012, the label is the creative vision of Dutch shoe designer Louis Leeman and his wife Erica Pelosini, a research stylist from Italy. The two met while studying at the Polimoda school in Florence and found that they shared a fervourous passion for fashion design.

The hugely successful partnership between German designer Porsche Design Sport and sportswear giants Adidas has produced a brand new limited edition colourway for their much sought after Ultra Boost trainer.

Following on from the hugely successful launch of Kanye West’s collaboration with Adidas Originals, ZOOFASHIONS.COM is proud to showcase the next chapter of Yeezy Season 1 with the launch of the highly anticipated third Yeezy Boost 350.

Launching new for this AW15 season into ZOOFASHIONS.COM brand mix is Italian designer Marcelo Burlon.

The German Army Trainer was initially an evolution of the first track spike trainer and was designed for indoor use. The GAT featured an all leather upper for suppleness and comfort. The sole was made from rubber gum for grip which was enhanced by dome shape indents at the toes which would act like suction cups. There is a circular design at the ball of the foot to improve pivoting and quick changes of direction.

After showcasing the DRKSHDW by Rick Owens line for many years ZOOFASHIONS.COM has ventured deeper into the Rick Owens universe. ZOOFASHIONS.COM is excited to introduce the total look from the main line Rick Owens collection for Autumn Winter 2015.

The Lanvin tennis sneaker is one of the most distinctive sneakers around. This season Lucas Ossendrijver’s classically designed silhouette has evolved with three different animal skin versions; Crocodile Print, Lizard Print and Python Skin.
