Always in the know of what is set to be hot to trot, long before the sun rises over the crowd-followers and they too see the light, Chic Today is pleased that Vogue Italia has also been captivated by the fabulousness of Bionda Castana’s dreamy shoe designs.

Featured on Chic Today in January 08 (In Pursuit of the Perfect Shoe? Found!), Bionda Castana has recently won Vogue Italia’s prestigious award in the accessories category of the fierce competition ‘Who is On Next?’, a project to find the next top talent.

Bionda Castana’s S/S 2009 collection was exhibited in front of the panel of iconic judges - many of whom would make Mr Cowell pull his trousers even higher. The Editor-in-Chief of Italian Vogue, Franca Sozzani; Andre Leon Tally (Vogue USA) and Averyl Oates (Harvey Nichols, London) were just a few of the judges who were so impressed by the Bionda Castana collection that they crowned our favourites victorious. The glamourously gorgeous collection presents the theme of ‘Il Paradiso’ (literally meaning paradise) with turquoise, gold, yellow and red ensuring the eye is caught and the foot is beautiful.

Congratulations Bionda Castana - we knew we could spot a winner!
