For next summer, L.K.Bennett is going unconventional, signing a capsule collection with Bionda Castana. For the occasion, the luxury shoe label launched in 2007 by Natalia Barbieri and Jennifer Portman has devised a collection that blends its young, graceful DNA to L.K.Bennett's timeless chic.

The collection consists of 20 models, six of them featured in different colours, in a style that celebrates the modernity of British design: a series of rounded, feminine shapes, with chequerboard graphics in printed leather and a colour palette ranging from raspberry to navy blue, pastel pink, cream, cornflower blue and black.
 
The capsule collection's names are inspired by actresses, and the shoes come in different heel height and shape, like the Jerry and the Janvier (10 cm heel), the Betty, Lois and Alexa (square, 7 cm heel) or the Jackie flat sandal.

Regarding the collection, Robert Bensoussan, L.K.Bennett's CEO, stated: "I'm delighted to be working with British designers I admire. Natalia and Jennifer have contributed their highly coveted style and, together with our label's design team, we have created something unique in terms of everyday luxury."

The collection is available in select L.K. Bennett stores worldwide, and online in the UK, France and Spain, as well as in multi-brand partner stores, at prices ranging from €365 to €450.
