The English Group has always kept a scrapbook of resources that we find inspiring. We now include this within our website in the form of a blog and, from now on, will add to it on an ongoing
basis. The directory showcases graphic design, art, books, magazines, film and music, photography, portraits, fashion, architecture, interiors, hotels and travel, products & toys - alongside The English
Group's own categories, ‘Travelling’ and 'Our Work' (‘Our Print’ and ‘Our Websites’), which illustrate the team's own travels and a full chronological listing of the agency's creative work.

The Art of Shoes: Manolo Blahnik

Manolo Blahnik, who lives in Bath, will be in conversation with Iain R Webb at the Holburne Museum in Bath on Thursday 29 March at 7.30pm – but you’ll have to be quick if you want a ticket!!

Blahnik is one of the world’s most influential and celebrated footwear designers, a true artisan whose shoes have been described as ‘works of art’. The award-winning designer, with a passion for cinema, literature and art, is idolised by women the world over. He was recently voted one of Britain’s coolest brands. Iain R Webb is a respected fashion writer who has contributed to The Times, Harpers Bazaar, Elle and many more. He is a Professor of Fashion at the Royal College of Art and Central Saint Martins.

 

This is a rare opportunity to hear Manolo Blahnik’s story and views on life, shoes and Bath, the city he calls home.
