Wales Bonner is extending the world of its Spring Summer 2026 “Jewel” collection down to the ground, introducing the Julien Slipper in black deerskin and olive suede as a refined, hybrid shoe that sits between loafer, ballerina, and sandal.​

Julien Slipper: a new SS26 hero

On the brand’s site, the Julien Slipper appears within the Spring Summer 2026 offer at £495, with women’s sizes typically ranging from EU 36 to 42 and additional lace-up variations listed under the same family. A woman’s version is described as a “soft slipper shoe crafted in tan suede, with braided lacing that features metal accent details,” signalling a focus on tactile materials and jewelry-like hardware.​

The Julien line also includes a lace-up ballerina interpretation in deerskin and patent leather as part of the SS26 Jewel story, sitting alongside Montego tasseled loafers and crystal-buckled leopard opera shoes in a collector style footwear wardrobe.​

How it fits into the “Jewel” collection

The SS26 collection, titled “Jewel,” marks ten years of Wales Bonner and explores a “collector of soulful clothing” through 1930s‑inspired eveningwear, British tailoring codes, and timeworn utility pieces. Mainline footwear is framed as heirloom like: Montego loafers and Julien slippers are designed to feel both precious and lived in, echoing the collection’s references to pearls, black gems, and handed‑down garments.

In that context, the Julien Slipper in black deerskin and olive suede reads as a quietly luxurious everyday option—soft, close to the foot, and rich in texture—meant to be animated by the wearer rather than treated as a trophy.​

Where to discover SS26 footwear
