Founded in 1946 by Amedeo Canfora, Canfora makes the most iconic strappy flat sandals, the so called ‘Capri sandals’, and is still run by the Canfora family today. Grace Kelly, Maria Callas and Greta Garbo were al big fans, as was Jackie Kennedy who commissioned a sandal with delicate chain straps in gold, silver, or rose gold, the K model. K sandals have been included in every collection since and they are still one of the most popular of all the styles sold:
