These Chic Italian Sisters Designed the Comfiest Flats Around
Why buy ordinary flats when you can snag a velvet pair that's handmade in Italy and designed by two incredibly stylish sisters? ViBi Venezia is a brand you should put on your radar ASAP—before everyone else finds out about it. Sisters Viola and Vera Arrivabene specialize in traditional Venetian slippers, and they ring in at a reasonable $87 to $93 at the current exchange rate. Kate Moss is already a fan, so we have a feeling the brand will blow up in no time.
Per a Footwear News interview, the sisters are descended from the Italian Savoia dynasty and grew up at the 16th century Palazzo Papadopoli directly on top of Venice's famed Grand Canal. In other words, you can officially say we're envious of the designer's glamorous life (and perfect shoes).

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 13 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
