Quilp Shoes

I was walking around the stalls at London Fashion Week when these rather natty-looking shoes caught my attention. Designed by Japanese Masao Morishita and made in Northampton by Trickers, they combine traditional attention to detail with a bit of modern snap.

The range is called 'Quilp' named after the dwarf from Dickens' Old Curiosity Shop who had a "ghastly smile... appearing to be the mere result of habit and to have no connexion with any mirthful or complacent feeling." At least he wore good shoes.
