Stella McCartney celebrates the 10th Anniversary of the Elyse platform with a limited-edition capsule of monochromatic styles, rendered In tonal black, red, white and all-over lead-free crystal.

The Elyse was shot at London’s Kew Gardens with a sculptural celebration of sunlight and plants as the roots of life on Earth, with reflective pieces reminding us that we are in nature and at one with it. This is aligned with Stella’s vision for the Elyse, using plant-based and cruelty-free alternatives to protect Mother Earth and our fellow creatures.

Bringing together the upper of a men’s Derby with the feminine, fashion twist of a signature platform silhouette, it rests on an immediately recognisable sustainably sourced, FSC-certified wooden wedge and saw-edged micro-sole. Each pair is handcrafted in Italy using 100% cruelty-free materials and is vegan down to the glue.

Its sleek and minimal Derby upper is laser-cut for a precise, clean aesthetic. The Elyse’s platform is responsibly made from FSC-certified beech wood; the 80mm wedge is sturdy but lightweight, ideal for elevating both tailored and casual looks. The shoe is finished with animal-free, water-based glues, intensively quality controlled by skilled artisans in Italy.
