Outside Galeria Melissa in SoHo for the model's debut collection!
Our favorite Brazilian shoe manufacturer announced yet another collaboration! In the past, Melissa Shoes has collaborated with top fashion designers including Vivienne Westwood and Jason Wu, but most recently they’ve joined forces with famed Brazilian supermodel, Alessandra Ambrosio! Last month, the Victoria’s Secret Angel debuted her collaborative shoe collection at Galeria Melissa in New York. Although Alessandra is the brand’s first celebrity designer, after seeing these adorable new styles, we doubt she’ll be their last!

As a little girl, Alessandra Ambrosio grew up wearing Melissa Shoes, and today, she’s passed the tradition down to her fashionista daughter who adores them! So when Melissa Shoes approached the supermodel about doing a collaborative collection, she jumped at the opportunity. Her mini collection is made up of two different styles—one ballet flat and one heel—in a variety of colors. The styles definitely reflect Alessandra Ambrosio and her personal style—easy and effortless by day and ultra-glam by night.

For over thirty years, Melissa Shoes has been dominating the plastic footwear industry, specifically in their native Brazil. However, the iconic brand is just starting to gain momentum in the US. And we bet that the Alessandra Ambrosio + Melissa Shoes collection will help draw in a whole new set of followers!
