Signature couture details
Materials & Italian Craftsmanship
We source our metallic leather exclusively from Italian tanneries renowned for their luminous finishes and supple hand-feel. The rose gold tone is achieved through a specialized metallic coating process that preserves the leather’s natural flexibility while delivering that signature shimmering effect.
Each pair of ralph and russo heels rose gold undergoes more than forty handcrafted steps in our Lombardy atelier. Master shoemakers shape the sculpted heel from solid wood forms, then hand-stitch the upper to a leather welt using techniques passed down through generations. The result is a heel that balances dramatic visual impact with structural integrity.
Sizing & Fit Guidance
Our rose gold heels follow Italian sizing conventions and fit true to size for most customers. We craft each pair on our signature last, which features a gently tapered toe box and medium width through the midfoot.
The adjustable ankle strap accommodates a range of ankle circumferences, and the cushioned insole molds to your unique foot shape over the first few wears. If you typically size up in pointed-toe styles, we recommend your usual size here — our toe box offers slightly more room than traditional stilettos.
Care & Longevity
Protecting the Metallic Finish
Store your ralph and russo heels rose gold in the provided dust bag, away from direct sunlight and heat sources. The metallic coating is durable but benefits from gentle handling — avoid contact with rough surfaces that might scratch the finish.
Wipe the leather gently with a soft, dry microfiber cloth after each wear to remove surface dust. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized metallic leather cleaner applied sparingly with a cotton pad, testing on an inconspicuous area first.
