The brief
The brand in a paragraph.
Salvatore Ferragamo founded his shoe company in Italy in 1927. He built custom leather shoes by hand, then moved to Hollywood in the 1920s. Ferragamo invented the wedge heel in 1938, solving structural problems other makers could not solve. The innovation made him famous across Europe and America. His signature remained quality construction and architectural precision in footwear. The brand expanded into leather goods, bags, and apparel after his death in 1960. Today Ferragamo operates across fashion and luxury markets globally. The company ranks fourth in Fashion & Footwear among 21,133 tracked brands.
