Renowned Italian footwear house Rene Caovilla is stepping boldly into the couture spotlight with the debut of its exclusive ‘Jungle Couture’ capsule collection — a luxurious, made-to-measure line that marries high fashion artistry with untamed wilderness energy.
Celebrating over a century of Venetian shoemaking, this latest venture honors Caovilla’s deep-rooted connection to Parisian haute couture, a history that includes collaborations with the likes of Valentino, Chanel, and Dior. Now, the brand is channeling that legacy into its own couture expression — one that celebrates both fantasy and flawless craftsmanship.
A Tribute to Nature, Couture, and Italian Excellence
The ‘Jungle Couture’ collection brings together the precision of Italian artisanship with the raw, vibrant inspiration of the natural world. Designed entirely in a bold fuchsia palette, the five-piece collection pulses with life and luxury — a vivid statement that reflects both Rene Caovilla’s heritage and its creative future.
Each piece in the capsule is handmade in the brand’s Italian ateliers, showcasing the house’s signature attention to detail and dedication to technique. From elaborate embroidery to crystal embellishments, the craftsmanship speaks to the brand’s reputation for turning shoes into wearable works of art.
Among the standout designs is a dramatic tulle boot, embroidered with more than 1,400 individual flowers and butterflies, requiring over 120 hours of skilled handwork. Another showstopper: a 105mm heeled ankle boot covered in 8,000 hand-applied crystals, shimmering with every step.
Statement Pieces for the Runway — and Beyond
The capsule also includes two sultry silhouettes — the Jungle pump and Jungle slingback — both made from radiant fuchsia satin and tulle, each adorned with over 150 precision-set crystals. And for fans of Caovilla’s signature glamour, the Jungle SuperCleo sandal offers a couture spin on the iconic coiled style, now reimagined with bold appliqués and jungle-inspired detailing.
Every piece in the collection is a statement — not just of fashion, but of artistic intention. It’s a celebration of nature’s chaos, channeled through couture clarity.
Only in Paris
Fittingly, this limited-edition collection will be available exclusively at Rene Caovilla’s Paris boutique during Haute Couture Week, reinforcing the brand’s place within the upper echelon of fashion houses crafting one-of-a-kind luxury experiences.
With ‘Jungle Couture,’ Rene Caovilla doesn’t just enter the couture conversation — it roars into it.
