BA (Hons) Cordwainers Footwear: Product Design & Development

“He was a piece of machinery, so finely made and curiously put together” - Virginia Woolf, Orlando Nous Sommes Démodés is a unisex footwear brand that designs classic footwear with a nod to the creative individual. The AW13 collection references traditionally crafted footwear, while juxtaposing unexpected details. Inspired by cabinets of curiosities, it is unconfined by categorical boundaries, resulting in curious and distinctive product that although conceptual, trickles down to something highly wearable. Luxury leathers are combined with concrete, a material commonly considered “ugly”, resulting in the unification of unexpected materials. Each style in the collection is named after benefactors of Don Saltero’s coffee House, one of London’s early cabinets of curiosities.
