Tamar Areshidze is a footwear brand known for sculptural, innovative designs that merge craftsmanship with art. Founded by designer Tamar Areshidze, the brand first gained international attention after winning the Be Next contest in Georgia and becoming a finalist at the Best fashion design contest in the world - International Talent Support (ITS) in Trieste, Italy.
Her shoes have been featured in Vogue Italia and exhibited at the Brooklyn Museum’s “Killer Heels” exhibition alongside the most significant names in fashion. Her early collections drew strong interest from international concept stores, impressed by the brand's unique artistic identity.
Brand targets a niche segment of the luxury footwear market — design-conscious consumers, stylists, and concept stores seeking collectible, limited-edition pieces that bridge art and fashion. The brand attracts clients who appreciate craftsmanship, originality and timeless sculptural forms.
It also resonates strongly with sustainable fashion lovers and performing artists who value expressive, statement footwear for editorials, stage presentations, and visual storytelling. Each pair becomes part of a larger creative narrative — bold, emotional, and unmistakably individual.
The brand now focuses on reintroducing its signature designs in new materials and forms, while developing fresh concepts that reflect the same emotional intensity and sculptural vision,
aiming to reconnect with the global market.
