For the first time in its history, Schiaparelli, under the creative direction of Daniel Roseberry, has introduced a sneaker that perfectly blends American casualness with Parisian elegance. This season, Roseberry brings his American roots to create what he described as a “fantasy of couture made for the street.”

The Schiaparelli sneaker is a fusion between the laid-back American style and the elegance of French fashion and the brand. Roseberry emphasizes that this sneaker is deeply meaningful to him as it mirrors his own life’s juxtapositions. This sneaker suits a variety of outfits, dressing down a sophisticated dress or dressing up a simple jeans-and-t-shir.
Schiaparelli’s heritage of sportswear dates back to 1927 when Elsa Schiaparelli, the founder of the brand, introduced a hand-knitted jumper with a trompe-l’œil motif that gained international acclaim. American Vogue hailed it as a “masterpiece,” leading Schiaparelli to expand her offerings to include a range of sportswear that was both practical and stylish. Today, nearly a century later, Daniel Roseberry continues to draw on this heritage, pushing boundaries with bold and unique creations that maintain the brand’s reputation for innovative and audacious fashion.
The introduction of the sneaker is part of Schiaparelli’s broader strategy to diversify and expand its accessory line, following the success of its cult bags like the Secret and the Anatomy Jewelry bag, and a series of fashion-forward shoes in the Fall Winter 2023 collection.
