Gaetano Pesce

melissa is known for developing amazing collaborations.  The most recent collaboration is with the Italian architect -artist-designer Gaetano Pesce.

The new melissa + Gaetano design is the most revolutionary shoe created by melissa.  This limited edition ankle boot is comprised entirely of interconnected circles, which wearers are able to cut and create a total of seven different styles from the original shoe.  Directions on how to create each new style is included when purchasing.

Gaetano Pesce is based in New York.  His work is characterised by the 'diversified series' the double functionality of objects and architecture, the creative use of colours, the political dimension of his projects, the theory and practice of the 'poorly made', the provocation, the use and improvement of synthetic materials, the theory of 'feminity' in the architectural projects and lastly the culture of objects.
