Named after the Greek word for boat, Pliaria takes the traditional preppy style and gives it a laid-back – but highly desirable – feel. Handmade in Greece to a typical boat-shoe shape, the style is given a twist with distinctive leather laces rolled to form a special knot (inspired by the father of our creative director, Christina Martini), and finished with gold charms hanging from the laces. This version taps the trend for raffia, combining it with smooth Vachetta leather and evoking memories of summer days.
