when it comes to supporting young designers, i love that more and more big brands are turning to the huge talent pool out there, offering unique opportunities for creatives to get exposure and recognition for their work. this is what happened again recently, when shoe giant RENO elected a lucky winner to this year's new faces award in the category of shoe design. 31-year-old Simon Barth took home the grand price of €5000 who can now look forward to have his design sold in RENO shops across Germany, starting 22.11.2011.
the winning show is an elegant heel with lots of fancy bling for anyone who likes to dress to impress. for just €59,95, this is an affordable option that would surely look lovely on your feet during new year's eve. winning design will be sold as a limited edition, so if you'd like to make sure that you get your hands (or feet) on a pair of these, reserve a pair here. for those who missed this year's BUNTE new faces award, here's a quick recap of it, also featuring winner Simon Barth.
