Deborah Lyons, designer, approaches shoe design from a clean, bold, sculptural point of view. At the age of 25, Deborah began her own line ‘Mechante’ (meaning ‘naughty’ in French), overseeing the development of her creations by travelling to the factories in Italy, studying the craft and working with the artisans themselves. Fiercely feminine, her designs combine a mix of luxurious textiles, leathers and metals. Deborah’s elevation of the shoe to art for the foot is boldly captured in her signature – a gold triangle stretched out on the sole down to the heel.
