The Contessa Slipper
Resort 2022
The Olivia von Halle Contessa slipper reflects the brand’s no-expense-sparing devotion to refinery; pairing contemporary, high-end design with traditional craftsmanship to create this new icon of decadent down-dressing.
Olivia von Halle describes the slippers as an ‘impeccable labour of love’, crafted by the brand’s wider circle of makers; artisans from a second-generation, family-run factory in Tuscany, Italy are responsible for their exquisite craftsmanship. The beautifully hand-stitched detailing gives the slippers their soul–alongside the integrity of their luxury materials.
Every design by Olivia von Halle centres comfort and luxury; by incorporating high-tech Ortholite (which is sustainably made from repurposed rubber), an Olivia von Halle slipper borrows the tech from the most versatile sneakers and applies it to slippers for incredible, luxe comfort. As with all their designs, Olivia von Halle slippers are crafted with sustainability in mind–using GOTS-certified cotton is used for particular slippers, alongside vegetable tanned leather, to meet the brand’s sustainability goals.
Every Olivia von Halle slipper brings the night alive with a personality of its own; such as the fun frivolity of our Contessa Romance, hand-stitched with pink feathers, the supremely elegant Contessa Balthazar, hand-embellished with a playful zebra motif, or the chic, minimalist choice of the Contessa Verona. The Olivia von Halle slipper epitomises the brand’s achievement of a modern aesthetic accomplished by artisanal design and hand-crafted detailing.
