French Shoe Designer and Creative Director, Jean-Michel Cazabat began his career in the 1980s, working alongside industry icons Charles Jourdan and Stéphane Kélian. It was during this time that he developed a deep passion for the art of shoemaking. In 2000, driven by his love for the craft, Cazabat launched his namesake brand in New York. His designs quickly became iconic on Hollywood red carpets, gracing the feet of major show business personalities such as the Kardashian and Jenner sisters, Sarah Jessica Parker, Kristen Stewart, Taylor Swift, Blake Lively, Solange Knowles, Lenny Kravitz, Madonna, Jennifer Lopez, Keith Richards, Elton John, and many more. With a signature blend of femininity, sex appeal, and a rock ‘n’ roll edge, Jean-Michel Cazabat's creations are anything but ordinary. His avant-garde designs are characterized by vibrant colors, luxurious materials, and ever-evolving styles. The designer’s world is rooted in beautiful craftsmanship and exceptional artisanal resources. He understands the value of a skilled manufacturer and collaborates with the finest artisans in Italy's renowned historic factories. After years dedicated to refining his craftsmanship and focusing on eco-conscious design, Jean-Michel Cazabat is set to relaunch his brand in September 2024, under the label CAZABAT, bringing his creative vision back to his homeland, France.
