Next month's London Fashion Week will debut a new collaboration between footwear brand Malone Souliers and fashion label David Koma. The capsule collection will be unveiled at Koma's runway show for autumn 2015 in February.

Malone Souliers, which is known for its "unapologetically feminine" footwear styles, consists of creative director Mary Alice Malone and managing director Roy Luwolt. David Koma's creations are for "powerful  and  confident women who Malone Souliers find to be dangerous, and sexy," the footwear label said.

The new footwear line will be installed as a capsule within Malone Souliers' core collection. It will feature slight and tailored platforms and have an artisanal focus on bindings.

Roy  Luwolt,  Managing  Director  of  Malone  Souliers,  commented, "We are thrilled to explore the fusion of our signatures; the structured body-­conscious silhouettes crafted by David Koma, and the playfully refined shapes and disobedient luxury that Mary Alice Malone brings to shoemaking. Above all, we look forward to honouring the brilliance to which the Koma woman is naturally accustomed – that strong sense of power and deed."

"The sheer quality and painstaking attention to detail of Malone Souliers, coupled with a certain, subtle irreverence caught my attention. I am excited about this collaboration," said David Koma. 

Malone Souliers is sold in boutiques including Matchesfashion.com in London, Bergdorf Goodman and Saks Fifth Avenue in the US, and the Biondini stores, Galeries Lafayette and Le Bon Marché in Paris.
