MILAN — Harry Nuriev may have just landed in Paris — with an atelier on Rue des Beaux-Arts for his Crosby Studio interiors and design practice — but he’s already hopping on to his next destination, alongside Autry.

The leading architect and designer has created a pop-up shop for the hip shoe brand at Ibiza’s El Silencio beach club.

Decked in subtle earthy tones of sand and beige, the pop-up space marks Autry’s launch of the new espadrilles style called Sandy. A suspended display of the summery cork-soled shoes takes center stage in the retail spot.

“In my latest project with Autry, I delve into the philosophy of Transformism — reimagining everyday objects as wearable art. Espadrilles transcend mere footwear, becoming sculptural statements,” Nuriev said. “This project culminates in a space that mirrors the collection’s ethos and invites visitors into an immersive journey to perceive the everyday through a transformative lens,” he said.

Known for his reinvention of common objects into sculptural art and architecture, oftentimes “silvering” them or patterning with transparency grids, Nuriev established his creative practice, Crosby Studio, in 2014. It spans a broad range of projects, including immersive environments, virtual installations, public spaces and object design and has collaborated with such varied fashion brands as Jimmy Choo, Nike, Valentino, Baccarat, Augustinus Bader and Dover Street Market.

Running through the end of August, the Autry pop-up shop at Ibiza’s El Silencio opens on June 24 with an event set to host a DJ set by Seth Troxler.

Combining the signature upper of the brand’s Medalist sneakers with the traditional espadrille outsoles in cork and EVA, the Autry Sandy comes in unlined canvas or suede versions, with a foldable heel counter, and is complemented by tone-on-tone, rope-style laces.

Their launch aligns with Autry’s diversification push, to lessen its reliance on the hero Medalist sneaker model.

In April, as the brand opened its first full-fledged flagship in London’s Soho, Roberta Benaglia, founder and chief executive officer of Style Capital — the private equity fund which acquired a 51 percent stake in the footwear brand in March 2024 — told FootwearNews that the launch of new styles over the past 12 months, including the ‘60s-nodding Windspin and the active-style Hyperway, are intended to cater to a diversified clientele.

Priced between 125 and 135 euros, the espadrilles will be available starting Friday in a variety of seasonal tones, from soft pastels and metallic finishes for women to muted neutrals and earthy tones for men, as well as suede colorways designed to be worn by both genders.

With forecasts for 2025 sales pegged at 140 million euros, Autry has opened its second flagship in Paris’ Le Marais last month, retail being one of the key expansion pillars envisioned by Benaglia and Style Capital.
