Taking the artisan-inspired ‘70s sandal to elegant new heights, the Whoo from Coclico skews both casual-wardrobe friendly and elegant-evening worthy. A tall wall of platform and wedge heel adds a lot of height without the fright of a wobbly stiletto, while that pliable leather upper closes over your foot for soft strides. Laser cut details add visual interest and some personal air-conditioning. An open heel and toe equal total ease.

Founded in 2000, Coclico (French for "poppy flower") is the creation of a French expatriate living in the United States. Sandra Canselier grew up in Brittany, France, where her family has been making shoes for three generations. It was only natural that her background and her love for New York would lead her to start her own line and open her first store/showroom in Nolita. Coclico is inspired by the increasingly important notion that we are all linked. The designer believes that each of our actions have effects beyond what we've previously understood. Coclico shoes feature beautiful, hand-finished vegetable tanned leathers processed with clean and modern techniques. This season, Coclico has introduced fresh silhouettes with a strong, yet playful edge.
