Jacquemus reinterprets Repetto's iconic Zizi Oxford shoe

As part of his “Les Sculptures” collection, which will be revealed during a show in Saint-Paul-de-Vence on January 29, Jacquemus has reinvented one of Repetto's timeless classics, the iconic Zizi Oxford shoe.

It was in the 1970s when Rose Repetto, eponymous founder of the brand, conceived this Oxford shoe, inspired by jazz dance shoes, which she named “Zizi” in homage to her daughter-in-law, the dancer Zizi Jeanmaire. Under the creative direction of Jacquemus, these shoes, also made famous by Serge Gainsbourg, now feature a square toe and a circular heel.

Made with the Goodyear welt method in Repetto's Dordogne workshops, this new leather model is available in sizes 35 to 46 and sells for 450 euros in select stores and online through the Repetto websites and Jacquemus.
