I had the absolute pleasure to catch up with Louise Ayling. An Artist who through an early connection and appreciation of shoes landed In the high-end industry of bespoke footwear in the capital of this artisan practice, London. With years of learning this craft she returned to New Zealand to raise a family and pursue her own practice. This is a rare insight to the beautiful work that is the bespoke shoe and an insight to a evolving practice where Louise’s skills and fine art background merge.
