One of One

A heel that does not exist yet, designed by Mark Schwartz for one woman.

The process

How it begins

It starts with a conversation. A call with our founder, Fiorella, where you talk through the occasion, the feeling, and the woman you are dressing.

From there, Mark Schwartz designs a single pair around you. The first sketch is drawn by hand, refined with you, and shaped until the shoe on paper is the shoe in your mind.

“I spent twenty years looking for a heel that did not exist. So I had it made. I want you to know that feeling, the one that was designed for no one but you.” - Fiorella, founder

The idea

The shoe you have been looking for

Most women already know the shoe they want. The height, the line, the colour, the way it should sit underfoot. It simply has not been made yet.

A private commission begins exactly there. With what you already know, and what you have never been able to find.

THE MAKING

Made by hand, made for you

Your pair is handcrafted in Le Marche by the same artisans behind every Cheetah Stories heel, from the next-generation materials of your choice. Finished to be worn, kept, and returned to for years, not for a season.

"Elegance becomes memorable when something unexpected interrupts it." - Mark Schwartz, Creative Director

The call

Begin the conversation

This is not a purchase you rush. It starts with a call, where you talk, and we listen. No price list, no pressure, no obligation to go further than the conversation itself.

If it feels right, Mark begins to draw. If it does not, you have lost nothing but a pleasant hour talking about shoes.

Private commissions are taken in small numbers each season, so the ones we make stay rare.

One pair. Yours alone. It begins the moment you call.
