Marilyn Monroe once said, “Give a girl the right pair of shoes, and she'll conquer the world.” You will often see these exact words or something along those lines on IG captions as women across the globe reiterate what Monroe said. Clearly, nice footwear can make or break your look.

In my teenage years, I binge-watched Carrie Bradshaw being obsessed with shoes and low-key wished to own at least half the number of pairs she did! India has plenty of international footwear brands, but our home-grown brands (and we have a whole bunch of them) are slowly taking over the reins. With unmatched quality and craftsmanship, these brands make products exactly how Indians like their footwear. Many of these also meet the vast demand for festive-wear footwear, something that’s hard to find in international labels.

If you’re looking for shoes from home-grown labels, these brands will offer you some stunning options.
