Ipanema, the brazilian shoe brand has partnered with the world-renowned creator Philippe Starck. With Ipanema's new line called STARCK, the collection reimagines footwear. Idea here is minimal and organic design representing Starck's modern and elegant sandals.

The collection will have flats, flip flops, and sandals in for distinct designs. The designs will be in different color combination. Sadly for men, the designs are all for women catering to the different lifestyles and moods such as arty, glamour, nature and sophisticated chic.

The beauty of the STARCK collection is that it blends to any outfit that you may have. The collection's palette is a blend of neutral and citrus tones including white, black, smoke, acid yellow, orange, rose, transparent yellow and transparent orange. The simple and sleek silhouettes are infused with an imaginative quality illustrating each of the four sensibilities. Organic elegance, purity, lightness and honoring the silhouette of the human form are quintessential to the design of the collection.



"The Ipanema with STARCK collection explores the territory of high elegance paired with the utmost minimalism. When you reach elegance with a few dollars or euros, this is no longer magic; it is a modern miracle," says Philippe Starck.

During the product launch, Mr. Francisco Elizalde, President of ELRO Retail Corporation, shares that Philippe Starck was also excited to work with Ipanema. Cecille Loretizo, ELRO Retail Corporation Marketing Head says, "We are truly privileged to team up with the world-renowned creator and creative genius Philippe Starck in this collaboration. This partnership will certainly bring timeless, accessible yet elegant line up of footwear for the modern, sophisticated women in the country across the globe."


Designing the Ipanema with STARCK was focused on sustainability. It was developed with 30% recycled materials and is 100% recyclable.If you're wondering about comfort, Ipanema adapted its industrial process to one that is more manual and artisanal. It employs proprietary plastique injection technique. Handcrafted the straps assembly to the sole allowing perfect fit for the women who wears it.
