Mihai Albu - When creativity is beyond imagination
Today, I dedicate a page to a great talent.
A talent recognized beyond the borders of Romania. A man, with golden hands, and full inspiration as I like to say :D
I remember even now, when I was no more than 10 years old, how much I wished I could wear his #shoes. A child's wish, infatuated with all things art.
Today I'm talking about you, Mihai Albu , because you #deserve #it!
You deserve much more than you could ever imagine!
Happy Birthday to a man, who sixty-one years ago, breathed for the first time. To a man, who leaves his mark all over the world and especially, in the hearts of all the women who had the opportunity to wear his creations.
#MihaiAlbu is a fashion designer and architect from Romania, known as the Shoe Architect, nicknamed as such by the press.
He began his professional career while still studying architecture at university, before the Revolution in Romania. He has appeared in various trade magazines, including Vogue Italia.
Mihai Albu is listed alongside Alexander McQueen, Manolo Blahnik and Christian Louboutin in the Shoegasm encyclopedia ! The only Romanian accessories designer, who has so far managed to secure a stable place in the international press alongside names like this. It seems that repeated appearances in Vogue magazine were just the beginning for the shoe architect.
Combining the traditional craftsmanship of creating shoes and Romanian architectural "savoir-faire", Mihai Albu designs sophisticated, feminine and ingenious collections for the modern and independent woman.
After Mihai entered the Guinness World Records , by creating the world's #highest #heels, 31 cm, the #designer #wanted #more... so has created a pair of #ankle #boots whose heels are 6 cm higher than those that held his own record.
Twice and Jackpot! When we really want something, we can get the best results :D
Good design starts from the here and now, but tends towards the timelessness of geometry. Each pair of shoes I create is a reflection of my life: controlled chaos. - Mihai Albu
After more than two decades of local success, Mihai Albu has started selling to foreign markets in Hong Kong, Japan, USA, Spain, UK and Dubai.
Today on your birthday, I #wish your #name to #resonate #around the #world, so that #unitednations know that one shoe architect exists in this #world and that is #YOU!
LinkedIn and me, Nicoleta A. , wishing you #happybirthday ! Thank you Mihai for all the dedication and love you have for your #profession.

Tell me Melinda French Gates , don't you think with these shoes, we can gracefully make our mark in this #world ? #ninaamzu
