The most fragile and delicate material feels ready for a big comeback. Last season, Dries Van Noten made glass necklaces, and glass handbags have been trending for the last year or so too. I could see a brand like Loewe, which pushes its materiality to an extreme (especially with footwear), create a pair of shoes that look like they’re made out of glass.
