Vena Cava for Via Spiga
Via Spiga, the Brown Shoe Co.-owned brand, has tapped ready-to-wear firm Vena Cava to create a capsule footwear collection that will march down its runway Sept. 6 at the Chelsea Art Museum in Manhattan.
This is the first designer collaboration for Via Spiga.
Vena Cava designers Lisa Mayock and Sophie Buhai, who were recently named finalists in the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund for the second time, traveled to Bologna, Italy, to learn about the leather and footwear trade. Vena Cava, founded in 2003 after Buhai and Mayock’s graduation from Manhattan’s Parsons School of Design, has created some accessories in the past, but hadn’t tried footwear.
