The Story
I’m Nicolas Cabanes-Gelly, a 31-year-old French designer passionate about footwear. I studied fashion in Paris, graduating top of my class and showcasing my work at London Graduate Fashion Week in 2020. Afterward, I began creating digital sneaker mashups, which gained attention on Instagram and led to collaborations with brands worldwide. One highlight was designing the MEMO-Z with Flowers for Society, presented at Paris Fashion Week, where I also directed the campaign. Alongside this, I craft premium hand-made custom sneakers, focusing on precision and detail. I see myself as a passionate designer and colourist, not just an artist. My next goal is to launch my own shoe brand and collaborate with creatives globally.
