Lovely Loafers: The Mandarina Edit
There is something undeniably chic about a well-cut loafer. Elegant yet effortless, loafers have a way of elevating an outfit without ever feeling overdone. At Mandarina, we have always had a love affair with this timeless style, which is why our winter line is brimming with luxurious textures, bold colours, and exquisite craftsmanship. From sumptuous silk brocade to rich suedes and playful animal prints, each pair of loafers in our collection is designed to be a wardrobe staple you will wear on repeat. Slip them on for dinners, parties, or everyday chic – these are shoes that work hard while making you look fabulous.
Firenze Burnt Orange Suede Velvet Loafers
Objects of very great beauty indeed. Our Firenze loafers return in a show-stopping burnt-orange devoré velvet, finished with black grosgrain ribbon and an elegant tassel trim. Handmade near Arezzo by one of Italy’s finest shoemakers, these loafers exude timeless sophistication. Leather lined with a supple sole and subtle 1cm heel, they offer both durability and comfort.
Why We Love These:
Pure Italian chic. The colour is rich without being overpowering, the velvet has a subtle sheen, and the tassels add just the right dash of drama. They are versatile too – refined enough for evening wear yet relaxed enough to style with denim. Truly a wardrobe investment that will last for years.
Wear These With:
Pair with slim black trousers and a roll neck for an elegant dinner look, or slip them under navy wide-leg trousers and a smart coat for city days. For a more relaxed take, try them with straight-cut jeans and a cosy cardigan.
Chocolate Brown Suede Fringe Front Loafers
Straight from the catwalk, the fringe-front loafer in deep chocolate brown suede is a seasonal must-have. Made for Mandarina in Spain by Alpe, these shoes feature a soft suede upper, robust non-slip sole, and a comfortable 2cm heel. Lined in leather, they are designed for wear day in and day out.
Why We Love These:
Classic yet cool, these loafers take the traditional moccasin silhouette and give it a modern update. The mocha hue is endlessly wearable and pairs beautifully with navy, black, green, and grey. It’s the kind of shoe you’ll reach for time and again – the more you wear them, the better they look.
Wear These With:
Style with a crisp white shirt, wide-leg jeans, and a knitted vest for an effortlessly chic daytime look. They also pair beautifully with skirts and dresses, adding polish without sacrificing comfort.
Leopard Print Pony Skin Chunky-Soled Loafers
Urban jungle energy meets timeless loafer styling. Our Alpe leopard loafers are crafted in Spain with a textured ponyskin upper, leather lining, and chunky non-slip sole. A key silhouette for the season, these loafers are both playful and practical, with a flattering 2cm heel.
Why We Love These
Because every wardrobe needs one pair of animal print shoes! These loafers add instant personality to any outfit while still feeling surprisingly versatile. They strike the perfect balance between bold statement and everyday wearability.
Wear These With
Keep it sharp and simple – wide-leg jeans, a crisp white shirt, and a knitted vest. Alternatively, use them to add flair to a simple black dress or neutral tailored trousers.
Bright and Bold Jade Silk Brocade Loafers
A fashion press favourite, these couture-level silk brocade loafers are true collector’s items. With their lustrous jade turquoise/green fabric, vibrant green silk tassels, and grosgrain trim, they are shoes of rare beauty. Each pair is handcrafted and produced in very limited numbers.
Why We Love These
They are nothing short of magnificent. These loafers are the epitome of luxury: rich colour, intricate detailing, and a flattering silhouette that feels both timeless and modern. They turn heads without even trying.
Wear These With
Style with wide silk trousers and a tailored white shirt for an elegant evening look. Or contrast their opulence with casual pale denim and a simple tee for off-duty glamour.
Pink Silk Brocade Loafers with Orange Tassels
Ooh la la indeed! These pink silk brocade loafers are trimmed with vivid orange tassels and grosgrain detailing. Crafted from sumptuous silk and lined in real leather, they are light, comfortable, and eye-catchingly unique.
Why We Love These
They are pure joy in shoe form. The bold clash of chrysanthemum pink and fiery orange makes these loafers truly one-of-a-kind. They’re also part of a limited couture line – once gone, they will not be repeated. A collector’s dream.
Wear These With
Let the shoes shine by pairing with simple trousers and a crisp blouse. For a playful contrast, wear with pale jeans and a relaxed T-shirt. These loafers are a conversation starter wherever you go.
