While this issue is dedicated to the cleverest entry-level buys, it is also about celebrating the special pieces that will elevate them. Gianvito Rossi’s Laura boot is just this. Beautifully crafted from butter-soft leather and with a walkable 85mm stacked heel, the calf-grazing length can be slipped under our favourite dresses, skirts and trousers to add an element of luxe. Such hard-working versatility makes for a wise cost-per-wear investment.
