Rene Caovilla

[1] Edoardo Caovilla, the father of Rene Fernando, studied under Luigi Voltan, recognized as the initial shoemaker in Riviera del Brenta.

His wife engaged in hand-embroidering shoes alongside four other individuals in a small room, a historical facet preserved within the Caovilla factory.

Hailing from a family entrenched in the footwear industry, Paola assumed responsibilities in public relations and oversaw the Caovilla handbag line.

On September 10, 2007, Harrods employed a live Egyptian cobra to provide security for the shoe counter, safeguarding a pair of haute couture sandals adorned with rubies, sapphires, and diamonds, designed by Caovilla.

Various celebrities, including Jennifer Aniston, Tyra Banks, Heidi Klum, Kim Kardashian, and Rihanna, have been observed donning footwear designed by Rene Caovilla.
