Shoe brand Le Monde B\u00e9ryl introduces its latest collection of flats featuring our iconic Leopardo velvet. Join us as we delve into the details of this collaboration through the words of the protagonists.<\/p>\n
Founded in 2016 by Lily Atherton-Hanbury and Katya Shyfrin, Le Monde B\u00e9ryl<\/a> brings a fresh perspective to classic footwear. Inspired by timeless designs such as Venetian slippers and riding boots, all of Le Monde B\u00e9ryl\u2019s shoes are hand-finished in Italy using sustainable practices and traditional techniques. Each piece prioritizes function, movement, and beauty.<\/p>\n Born out of a desire for stylish flats with clean lines and minimal branding, the founders draw inspiration from a variety of sources. A 70s movie scene, a Helen Frankenthaler painting, or ancient Greece might spark a design. \u201cWe envision where our shoes might travel,\u201d says Hanbury.<\/p>\n Their backgrounds in gemology and art influence the brand\u2019s name, referencing the B\u00e9ryl family of gemstones, and their vibrant colors inspire Le Monde B\u00e9ryl\u2019s palettes.<\/p>\n Each collection aims for a classic feel that allows the wearer to express their own style. \u201cOur shoes are sustainable, collectible, and designed to transcend trends,\u201d say Atherton-Hanbury and Shyfrin. They envision Le Monde B\u00e9ryl\u2019s creations as cherished pieces that will remain relevant across time and cultures.<\/p>\n The brand\u2019s founders are passionate about the artisanal craftsmanship found in Italy and have developed strong relationships with this community. Their first collaboration with Bevilacqua came in 2019 when Atherton-Hanbury and Shyfrin introduced the tiger velvet into their collection. It has been a popular mainstay ever since.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.24.3″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n 2024 marks a new chapter in this collaboration with the launch of Le Monde B\u00e9ryl\u2019s footware collection made with Bevilacqua’s velvets.

It also requires a lot of time and patience, because it is a process with ancient, slow rhythms that produces just a few inches of velvet per day, making it an exclusive and unique fabric.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_3,1_3,1_3″ _builder_version=”4.22.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.22.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.luigi-bevilacqua.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/045-LEOPARDO-velluto-tagliato-_leopardo_-marron-giallo.jpg” title_text=”045-LEOPARDO velluto tagliato _leopardo_ marron-giallo” show_in_lightbox=”on” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.24.3″ _module_preset=”default” module_alignment=”center” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.22.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.luigi-bevilacqua.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Le-Monde-Beryl_03-1-1.jpg” title_text=”Le Monde B\u00e9ryl_03″ show_in_lightbox=”on” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.24.3″ _module_preset=”default” module_alignment=”center” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_3″ _builder_version=”4.22.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.luigi-bevilacqua.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Le-Monde-Beryl_04-.jpg” title_text=”Le Monde B\u00e9ryl_04″ show_in_lightbox=”on” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.24.3″ _module_preset=”default” module_alignment=”center” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.16″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.24.3″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n \u201cThe setting of Bevilacqua, with its incredible wealth of history and craftsmanship, blends elements we strive to put at the heart of all of our Le Monde B\u00e9ryl collections\u201d say Atherton-Hanbury and Shyfrin.<\/p>\n Artistic practice and visual culture, both past and present, are strong reference points and sources of inspiration for the Le Monde B\u00e9ryl collection. \u201cBy sharing a genuine moment with such an inspiring partner as Bevilacqua, during an event that literally started our brand, we hope to celebrate and highlight the importance of collaboration, while providing a unique insight into the rich tapestry and creative history of Venice,\u201d says Shyfrin.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.luigi-bevilacqua.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Le-Monde-Beryl_01-.jpg” title_text=”Le Monde B\u00e9ryl_01″ show_in_lightbox=”on” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.24.3″ _module_preset=”default” max_width=”400px” module_alignment=”center” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.24.3″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n The Venice Biennale is a central narrative in the creation and evolution of Le Monde B\u00e9ryl, while Venice has been home to our Tessitura since the 18th century.

Our collections have been displayed at the Venetian Pavilion, a clear acknowledgement of the connection between the world of art and our fabrics, which can easily be considered works of art by themselves.<\/p>\n \u201cWe believe that fashion is art because it is one of the many ways to bring beauty into our daily lives,\u201d says Mr. Alberto Bevilacqua, CEO of Bevilacqua.<\/p>\n \u201cThe launch of the new Le Monde B\u00e9ryl collection, featuring our iconic Leopardo velvet, in this creative and vibrant environment is the perfect demonstration of the ongoing dialogue between art, fashion, and tradition.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cThere are many joys to the Venice Biennale,\u201d says Atherton-Hanbury. \u201cIt\u2019s a wonderful way to see different cultural perspectives, unpicking a different worldview through the arts and it\u2019s so inspiring the way the city embraces all of these different ideas and proposals. It\u2019s like a visual outpouring and a coming together of established voices and emerging names in the art world.\u201d<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.luigi-bevilacqua.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/Le-Monde-Beryl_leopard.jpg” title_text=”Le Monde B\u00e9ryl_leopard” show_in_lightbox=”on” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.24.3″ _module_preset=”default” max_width=”400px” module_alignment=”center” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text disabled_on=”on|on|on” admin_label=”Cover photo credit: ” _builder_version=”4.22.1″ disabled=”on” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n<\/span>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Discover Le Monde B\u00e9ryl new slippers in Bevilacqua’s iconic Leopard Velvet, elegant flat shoes with clean, timeless lines.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":60586,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":" [et_pb_section fb_built=\"1\" _builder_version=\"4.16\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"][et_pb_row _builder_version=\"4.16\" background_size=\"initial\" background_position=\"top_left\" background_repeat=\"repeat\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"][et_pb_column type=\"4_4\" _builder_version=\"4.16\" custom_padding=\"|||\" global_colors_info=\"{}\" custom_padding__hover=\"|||\"][et_pb_text _builder_version=\"4.24.3\" background_size=\"initial\" background_position=\"top_left\" background_repeat=\"repeat\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"]<\/p> Il brand di calzature Le Monde B\u00e9ryl presenta la sua ultima collezione, la Slim Runner, caratterizzata dal nostro iconico velluto Leopardo. Scoprite i dettagli di questa collaborazione attraverso le parole dei protagonisti.<\/p> Fondata nel 2016 da Lily Atherton-Hanbury e Katya Shyfrin, Le Monde B\u00e9ryl<\/a> offre una prospettiva nuova alle calzature classiche. Ispirate a modelli senza tempo come le pantofole veneziane e gli stivali da equitazione, tutte le scarpe di Le Monde B\u00e9ryl sono rifinite a mano in Italia utilizzando pratiche sostenibili e tecniche tradizionali. Ogni pezzo privilegia la funzionalit\u00e0, il movimento e la bellezza.<\/p> Spinte dal desiderio di creare scarpe basse eleganti, dalle linee pulite e dal marchio minimale, le fondatrici traggono ispirazione da diverse fonti. Una scena di un film degli anni '70, un dipinto di Helen Frankenthaler o l'antica Grecia possono dare vita a un progetto. \"Immaginiamo dove potrebbero viaggiare le nostre scarpe\", dice Hanbury.<\/p> Il loro background in gemmologia e arte ha influenzato la scelta del nome del marchio, che fa riferimento alla famiglia di gemme del berillo (in inglese B\u00e9ryl), i cui colori vibranti ispirano le palette di Le Monde B\u00e9ryl.<\/p> Ogni collezione punta su un'atmosfera classica che permette a chi la indossa di esprimere il proprio stile. \"Le nostre scarpe sono sostenibili, da collezionare e disegnate per andare oltre le tendenze\", affermano Atherton-Hanbury e Shyfrin. Le creazioni di Le Monde B\u00e9ryl sono accessori di pregio che mantengono il loro valore nel tempo.<\/p> Le fondatrici del brand sono grandi appassionate dell'artigianato italiano e nel tempo hanno sviluppato forti relazioni con maestri locali. La prima collaborazione con Bevilacqua risale al 2019, quando Atherton-Hanbury e Shyfrin hanno introdotto il velluto tigrato nella loro collezione. Da allora, questo tessuto \u00e8 stato un elemento di grande successo per la loro linea.<\/p> [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=\"4.24.3\" background_size=\"initial\" background_position=\"top_left\" background_repeat=\"repeat\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"]<\/p> Il 2024 segna un nuovo capitolo di questa collaborazione con il lancio delle Slim Runner di Le Monde B\u00e9ryl, la prima creazione unisex e sportiva del marchio, disponibile nello splendido velluto Leopardo.<\/p> [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=\"https:\/\/www.luigi-bevilacqua.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/Le-Monde-Beryl_09.jpg\" alt=\"Visita Patriarca Roncalli | Tessitura Bevilacqua\" title_text=\"Le Monde B\u00e9ryl_09\" show_in_lightbox=\"on\" _builder_version=\"4.24.3\" _module_preset=\"default\" max_width=\"600px\" module_alignment=\"center\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=\"4.24.3\" background_size=\"initial\" background_position=\"top_left\" background_repeat=\"repeat\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"]<\/p> Il velluto Leopardo<\/a> \u00e8 nato dalla collaborazione con Iris Apfel negli anni Cinquanta. \u00c8 un velluto di seta caratterizzato da un motivo leopardato. \u00c8 disponibile in marrone, giallo e beige, oltre che in un'ampia gamma di altri colori, tra cui bianco e nero, tonalit\u00e0 vivaci e tenui colori pastello.<\/p> [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=\"https:\/\/www.luigi-bevilacqua.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/leopardo-marron-giallo-beige-440_leopardo_1080x675.jpg\" alt=\"Visita Patriarca Roncalli | Tessitura Bevilacqua\" title_text=\"leopardo-marron-giallo-beige-440_leopardo_1080x675\" show_in_lightbox=\"on\" _builder_version=\"4.24.3\" _module_preset=\"default\" max_width=\"600px\" module_alignment=\"center\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=\"4.24.3\" background_size=\"initial\" background_position=\"top_left\" background_repeat=\"repeat\" global_colors_info=\"{}\"]<\/p>Le Monde B\u00e9ryl\u2019s Slippers in Bevilacqua\u2019s Leopardo Velvet<\/h2>\n
