Specially designed for the “8 variations for Stradivari” exhibition at Cremona, Italy (May 2013), this style is Kobi’s view of the classic instrument. The brown leather mimics the warmness of carved wood and with “strings” up the heel and S-shaped “holes” on the insole and sole, the transformation into a shoe shape is complete.
Harp Footwear Art by Kobi Levi
This design is inspired by the classic harp. Like the instrument itself, it is shaped around an empty space, where the main details are placed to complete and emphasize the overall look.

It’s an ongoing thing.
As a person with delicate baby princess feet… I feel it.

Jeffery West silver metallic laser-etched derbys – ahhh, now that’s more like it. That is an I-intend-to-be-noticed-and-I-don’t-give-a-stuff-if-you-like-it-or-not shoe.

For my first assignment in class, we were to buy a shoe and customise it to our inspiration. I decided to bade mine on bakery/sweets/desserts. Because in the past I use to do decoden, I decided to incorporate it into my shoe as I thought it went well with inspiration. The fruits are made from Polymer clay and painted with acrylics, glazed with sparkly nail polish as I left my glaze at home. The Swiss roll heel is made from Air drying clay and painted with acrylics. Both the filling and piped cream is white silicone.
I added more piping but don’t have a nice enough photo so this is the near finished design! Pretty please how it turned out!
AMAZING
