A new exhibition will be held in Paris to celebrate Roger Vivier as a shoes artist designer for a long time. Entitled Virgule (Comma), after the inverted heel he created that so resembles the punctuation mark, the designer’s imagination is made plain. He livened up what footwear could be with the contours of the shoe itself, as well as pvc labels . A special pvc label can show the owner’s taste. The exhibition of his work at the Palais de Tokyo, which opens Wednesday, displays 170 shoes, well over a hundred pairs of which are pure vintage. Pulled from collections across the globe—the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Bata Shoe Museum, private collections, and the Roger Vivier archive—the exhibit gives a great spectrum of the imaginative range at work.

Displayed in a main hall lined with transparent cases, each is like a glass slipper menagerie. Each of the shoes have their own pvc labels,and you can  find everyone has itself feature.The walls are light gray, decked with fashion sketches by both Vivier and Bruno Frisoni, the creative director the brand since 2002 (Vivier died in 1998). Frisoni has had his own eponymous label since 1999, and has been known to use playful touches on his shoes too, such as ruffles and flowers.

The pvc labels next to each shoes are invented by Saillard,a convinced name,it was him that had designed so many personalized pvc labels attached to the shoes for the famous super stars all around the world. The labels cite neither shape nor color,are all typical.Both material and technic are Saillard’s style. There’s the Tête Réduite (Shrunken Head) for a leather and rooster-feathered sandal that looks like an ancient totem and climbs up the calf. There’s the Campbell’s Soup Can, a red velvet and PVC bootie, like something members of The Factory would have worn in deference to Warhol.
