Paul Andrew, a British-born, New York-based footwear designer who worked alongside Donna Karan, Calvin Klein, Narciso Rodriguez and Alexander McQueen, launched his eponymous women's shoe line in 2013, won the CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund the following year, and added a men's collection in 2016. After a hiatus, the label relaunched in 2022 around a refined, unadorned shoe silhouette, with pairs produced in Italy by named artisans, including a Milanese craftsman behind the collection's signature satin rose detail.
