What to know about AMINA MUADDI

One heel shape carries the brand

Nearly everything is built on a flared, fluted heel, most recognisably the Begum crystal slingback and Gilda sandal, so styles read as variations on a single silhouette.

Italian shoemaking, not a startup's guesswork

Production sits in Italy's Riviera del Brenta footwear district, and Amina Muaddi had already co-founded the label Oscar Tiye in 2012 before starting this line in 2018.

Small label, real commercial scale

Founded in 2018, it reported around 55 million euros in 2022 revenue across direct sales and 85-plus wholesale accounts, with handbags added and past Fenty and AWGE collaborations.
