ALDO RISE Fall/Winter 2012 Collection
TWO BRANDS BRING A UNIQUE PERSPECTIVE TO ALDO’S SEASONAL LINEUP
Story by Odessa Paloma Parker
Back for another season, ALDO RISE (the brand’s fashion week collaboration program) promises to bring a fresh pair of eyes (er, feet) to the street with their pairings with designer Patrik Ervell and the coveted label, Preen.
Ervell, who has designed both a women’s and men’s collection for RISE, provides a utilitarian line of rubber soled boots and shoes that mix materials like leather and nylon, leaving you ready for a most fashionable urban trek.
Preen, back for their second season with RISE, focuses on a hyper-high heel teamed up with materials like suede and leather (some styles featuring botanical prints) that give a new lease on life to a retro Victorian style.
With such very different takes on footwear, it won’t be hard to choose how to rise to the occasion.
