If you have been eagerly anticipating fall shoe shopping, your moment has arrived. The new Alex Mill x Margaux collaboration features a bold three-piece capsule collection that starts at $325. This marks an exciting first partnership between the two stylish brands from New York City, showcasing their creative synergy through a trio of designs. Each piece reflects their shared dedication to effortless elegance and a playful use of color. For Vogue readers, there’s an exclusive 24-hour shopping window to explore the full collection before it becomes available to the public on September 30.
The exclusive edit promises versatile, autumn-ready options, including a chic flat slipper, a sleek kitten-heeled ankle boot, and an elegant point mule—each inspired by the minimalist aesthetic of the ’90s, which both brands often celebrate. Alexa Buckley, co-founder of Margaux, describes, “My go-to, everyday shoes are effortless without losing personality. They’re the shoes I can start and end my day in—adding sophistication to an outfit without any fuss. This collection captures that philosophy: a simple mule, a sassy heel, and an essential boot. Each style holds unique details and distinct character while serving as true wardrobe staples.”
Echoing this sentiment, Sarah Pierson, co-founder of Margaux, emphasizes the importance of versatile accessorizing, a quality embodied by the three new designs. “My most-loved shoes are versatile and comfortable, yet they have enough flair to complete an outfit—think minimalist sandals in summer, tailored loafers for fall, or stylish western boots in winter,” she shares. “The styles in our collaboration embody that ethos—they are adaptable, with their unique take on everyday elegance.”
The unified vision of the co-founders makes this collaboration feel seamless. “I have been sketching outfits for years, and consistently, I draw the same shoe—a slip-on, a pointed boot, or a subtle heel,” remarks Somsack Sikhounmuong, creative director at Alex Mill. “The resulting collaboration honors that idea. These are simple shoes that complement virtually any outfit you own. They boast a cleanliness and ease of line and form that Margaux excels at.”
The selection features classic seasonal materials like velvet, suede, satin, and luxurious calf leather, presented in a palette of both essential neutrals and subtle pops of color. Shades vary from reliable blacks and browns to dreamy slate blue and deep burgundy. “Our aim was to achieve a perfect blend of practicality and whimsy, integrating staple shades like espresso and black in beautiful nappa and suede with on-trend colors of blue and burgundy,” Pierson explains. “I love the interplay of materials—the sheen of satin, the depth of color in suede, and the soft feel of nappa create a harmonious dialogue of texture and color.”
