A Splendid Manolo’ is the name of Manolo Blahnik’s upcoming interesting new collection, which features a hand-picked assortment of styles that the designer considers both personal favorites and uniquely Manolo.

The long history of the brand gives this initiative a good chance of succeeding in the long run. Exclusive to Manolo Blahnik’s brick-and-mortar and online boutiques, these collector’s edition models come with a special touch—an embroidered dust bag and a sketch that is only available in this run.

‘Sene,’ a pair of black satin boots embellished with a sculptural heel in brilliant pink and pom-poms, is the first release in the Splendid line for summer 2024. Every step of this design is adorned with intricate crochet tassels and striking silk-covered accents, paying homage to the ‘Belle Epoque’ era. The sculptural, color-pop heel is the modern touch that firmly positions the design in contemporary fashion.

The brand’s current financial performance reflects its sustained success, which happens to coincide with the debut. The luxury goods industry is seeing fast consolidation, but Manolo Blahnik has maintained its independence and produced strong results, including a notable rise in sales and pre-tax profit in its most recent financial statements.

In addition, the company has taken use of cutting-edge tech by launching The Craft Room, a VR attraction that delves into the craftsmanship of the men’s and women’s collections. Also, Manolo Blahnik is set to launch more stores in Hong Kong thanks to a new agreement with luxury brand operator Bluebell Group. This will further reinforce the brand’s position in the worldwide market for luxury footwear and accessories.
