Jude Redefines Minimalist Footwear
Founded in 2024 by Jurgita Dileviciute and Denitsa Bumbarova, JUDE is the result of two industry veterans bringing a refined, sensual perspective to modern footwear. With backgrounds in footwear and accessories, the duo created the brand as a response to the need for understated yet impactful design. Drawing on a shared appreciation for form, function, and feminine strength, JUDE focuses on sculptural silhouettes, muted tones, and details that lean more towards intentional than ornamental.
Handcrafted in Portugal using high-quality Italian and French leathers, JUDE’s designs are as focused on wearability as they are on aesthetics. The pieces are made for women who favour confidence over flash, blending minimalist structure with subtle edge. Clean lines, unusual heel shapes, and flattering finishes define the collections, all while maintaining a quiet sense of boldness.
Within a year of launching, JUDE has made a name for itself as a brand to watch. Its Date Mule, with a sleek peep-toe and sculpted heel, is already a regional bestseller. The Fame Pump adds a soft curve to a classic shape, while the Paw Mule, known for its comfort and lift, has been seen on names like Katie Holmes and Michelle Monaghan.
Celebrity endorsements have helped push the brand further into the spotlight. Nicole Kidman and Kim Kardashian are among the first to wear the label, adding momentum to its global appeal.
JUDE is currently stocked at select international retailers and is available in Dubai through Level Shoes, Ounass, Harvey Nichols, and Fabric of Society.
