Everyday Look according to your own definition.
There are no strict rules that define the word "beautiful" because what you should always consider is your own uniqueness and confidence in your own style. Whether it's a workday or a leisure day, BWILD provides you with confidence and comfort in the Everyday Look with well-designed open-toe shoes that fit the current lifestyle. Because we believe that "Every day is your day." BWILD's open-toe shoes are handmade, featuring a contemporary pattern inspired by traditional Thai handwoven silk, creating a contemporary craft that embodies the ancient Thai legend. They are distinctive, comfortable with every step, and resonate with the fast-paced global trend, allowing you to march to the beat of your own drum.
Why are BWILD's open-toe shoes made from handwoven silk?
When it comes to silk fabric, many may think it's only suitable for making traditional Thai dresses or clothes for special occasions, appearing incompatible with the modern lifestyle. However, did you know that what we perceive as "ordinary" holds great value? The handwoven silk fabric, known as "mudmee," has been part of the local culture and intertwined with the people of the Northeast (Isan) for over 200 years. BWILD seeks to bring about a positive change by appreciating the beauty and simplicity found in cultural heritage. Despite the time-consuming nature of handweaving compared to machine production, we aim to contribute to the concept of Sustainable Fashion by incorporating traditional wisdom into our designs. The entire team works in their respective areas of expertise while enjoying life and taking care of their families. By choosing handwoven silk, we embrace a slow fashion movement and express our understanding of nature. Each handwoven silk piece has its unique pattern, telling a story that reflects the local traditions, wisdom, and heritage. These elements are not just designs; they carry valuable cultural information that is passed down from generation to generation. By using mudmee silk in our footwear designs, we aim to promote Sustainable Fashion and support the continuation of a rich cultural legacy. This approach allows us to blend and design unique patterns on our open-toe shoes, providing you with a comfortable and confident everyday look.
