About Kat
About Kat Maconie, London Designer of Iconic Statement Heels
Kat Maconie is a London-designed footwear brand known for bold, sculptural heels and unapologetically expressive design. Founded in 2010 by designer Kat Maconie, the brand has become synonymous with colour, creativity and wearable statement footwear.
From our London studio, every collection is shaped by the city’s arty, eclectic spirit and brought to life with global cultural influence. Every heel, trim and signature piece of hardware is developed in-house, including our iconic framed heel, inspired by a vintage 1970s gold and onyx ring. It’s how we keep every design unmistakably ours.
A two-time winner of Drapers Shoe Designer of the Year, Kat Maconie has collaborated with runway designers Ashley Williams and Teatum Jones at London Fashion Week, built a loyal global clientele, and earned a place on the shelves of some of the world’s most prestigious stockists.
Following our acquisition by Luxutte, a Dubai-based retail investment group, the brand is entering its most exciting chapter yet. We’re scaling globally across retail and direct-to-consumer, while keeping the creative DNA, design-led ethos and signature point of view that have defined Kat Maconie from day one.
Creative Design: Sculptural Statement Heels, Designed in London
Andy Warhol once said that shoes can be art, and it’s safe to say Kat Maconie designs fall firmly into that category. From Taylor Swift to Rita Ora, our statement heels have put a spring in the step of some of the world’s most fashionable women, and starred in limited-edition capsules with brands like Veuve Clicquot, Pink Panther and Mirror Margarita.
Kat Maconie shoes are instantly recognisable. A dazzling colour palette. Statement gold hardware frames on architectural heels. Maximalist details, beaded and bedazzled, embroidered and appliqued. More is more. And yet, every pair is designed with comfort and fit at the forefront, built on lasts specially developed for long-wear confidence and stability.
Each season, we release a signature collection of unique shoes, sandals, sneakers, accessories and beauty. The graphic shapes, unexpected textures, embellishments and vivid colour combinations of these contemporary luxe designs have made them the go-to for women who dress from the feet up. Fashion-forward, individual, and never afraid to be seen.
We believe a great pair of shoes is for everyone. That’s why we celebrate diversity across age, ethnicity and body type, and continue to expand our extended sizing across our most-loved styles. Whoever you are, however you dress, there’s a pair of Kat Maconies just waiting to become your new favourite.
