In occasion of the 6th edition of the Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week Malta 2016, Locanda La Gelsomina hosted an intimate trunk show of niche, luxury sandal brand Sofia Capri within its jewel-box courtyard steeped in history.

Featuring an exclusive capsule collection of artisanally crafted styles hand-made on the isle of Capri in Italy, guests were treated to a slice of la dolce vita amidst the scent of lemons and jasmine flowers whilst sipping on refreshing latte di mandorla.

Sofia Capri is stocked in several of the world's finest boutiques, including the Rockshop by Eden Rock St Barths and GAS Bijoux in New York, and has been featured in the pages of VOGUE Italia, ELLE Singapore and Marie Claire Australia.
