Just in time for summer, Net-a-porter has launched the new Emilia Wickstead x Manolo Blahnik capsule collection, featuring 12 exclusive new shoe styles as well as ready-to-wear apparel. The curated collection combines Blahnik’s renowned craftsmanship across shoes and accessories with Emilia Wickstead’s refined, feminine and detailed approach to womenswear.
The union of each brand’s design styles resulted in a polished edit of pieces designed for everything from summer events and weddings to everyday dressing. The shoes are meant to elevate those special moments and day-to-day looks, especially when paired with the dresses, matching sets, skirts and other items from the collection.

“We are delighted to partner with Emilia Wickstead on a new capsule collection, launching exclusively at Net-a-porter and Emilia Wickstead,” Kristina Blahnik, chief executive officer at Manolo Blahnik, said in a statement. “The collection is designed to create the ultimate timeless wardrobe, pieces that pair effortlessly and feel both modern and enduring. As long-term partners and proudly British brands, we share a commitment to artisanship, creativity and elegant design.”
Wickstead, who graduated from Central Saint Martins and got her start interning in the design houses of Milan, London and New York before making her name as a made-to-measure atelier in 2009, agrees. “This collaboration felt entirely natural. Both of our houses are built on craftsmanship, beauty and a belief in timeless design,” the brand’s founder and creative director said in a statement. “I have long admired Manolo Blahnik’s extraordinary eye and the artistry that defines the brand, and it has been a true pleasure to bring our worlds together.”
The collection features Blahnik’s signature shoe styles like the Hangisi pointed-toe pumps, the Callamu strappy kitten-heeled mules, the Maysli slingback pumps, ballet flats and more. The shoes are crafted with intricate prints and designs like stripes, florals and more. The Hangisi pumps, which are also available in a ballet flat, are made with a crystal-embellished metallic gold jacquard material.
The Callamu styles are crafted from grosgrain and have crossed straps framing the open toe and rest on 50mm kitten heels. They are available in a fun pink and orange striped print, as well as a navy blue and light blue version, and both retail for $950.
“This capsule perfectly captures the meeting point of craftsmanship and modern femininity. It’s a timeless yet contemporary collection that speaks to our customer’s desire for pieces that feel both elevated and effortless,” Brigitte Chartrand, chief buying and merchandising officer at Net-a-porter, said in a statement.
The Emilia Wickstead x Manolo Blahnik capsule collection is now available to shop at Net-a-porter on Monday.
