Eco-friendly Brazilian shoe label, Melissa gives its iconic plastic shoes a face-lift in their latest designer collaboration with New York’s downtown favourite fashion brand, BAJA EAST.

The hallmark aesthetics of BAJA EAST designers, Scott Studenberg and John Targon seamlessly unifies with Melissa, to produce bold, edgy footwear and accessories, designed to complement BAJA EAST’s collection of “loose luxury” – a fashion and lifestyle concept blending the duo’s native laid-back California cool with a city street edge.

The runway presentation showcased BAJA EAST’s collection of loose luxury, with Melissa footwear complementing the styles and looks worn by models, including American fashion model, Karlie Kloss.

True to Melissa’s over 35 years of innovation and high design, the MELISSA + BAJA EAST collaboration features innovative use of the brand’s key raw material: recyclable PVC – 100% cruelty-free.
