One of the oldest luxury shoemakers, René Caovilla traces its roots back to 1928. René took over from his father Edoardo in the 1950s, upholding the same handmade craftsmanship according to the noblest traditions. The brand’s shoes are still produced in its historic family-run factory in Venice. Now under third-generation creative direction, the label has remained true to its dreamy, fanciful aesthetic.
