Footwear featured in the collaborative capsule includes their “Kensington” flat sandal, which comes in three colorways and includes a vibrant floral motif complemented with an abstract ikat design to create a beautiful bohemian print across the quilted uppers.

The “Kensington” espadrille is also one of many shoes featured in the collection. The style features rainbow and fuchsia floral motifs, accompanied by Kurt Geiger’s signature gold eagle head with rainbow crystals set atop the crisscrossing straps.

Matthew Williamson is known for his use of maximalist prints, bold colors and carefully constructed designs. The British designer’s eponymous fashion house was founded in February 1997 and in 2007, Williamson was appointed the creative director of Emilio Pucci. Today, Williamson mainly focuses on interior and furniture design, but he still lends his creative stylings to the fashion world from time to time, seen in his collaborations with Kurt Geiger.
