Founded by moi, MadCharlotte is a brand that seeks to capture la joie de vivre — that uniquely French art of living joyfully.

Originally trained as a pastry chef in Paris, my creative sensibility was first shaped in the world of haute pâtisserie — a realm where precision, refinement, and indulgence are everything.

In 2021, life presented me with a crossroads. I took a detour, and that road led me to footwear — something I had always dreamed of creating. The artistry once expressed in delicate pastries found its next form in designing shoes — creations that carry the same devotion to beauty, detail, and refinement, now crafted in Italy by skilled artisans.

In Paris, life moves at the rhythm of a stroll — from boulevards to the iconic Parisian gardens. At home, we love to entertain: an apéritif with friends, a simple meal beautifully served, always with that effortless sense of chic. That same spirit — the ease, the pleasure, the quiet beauty in everyday moments — is what inspires MadCharlotte.

Each pair of shoes is created with that feeling in mind: life’s little luxuries turned into something lasting. Like a perfect pastry, they’re made from a few exceptional ingredients — exquisite materials, precise craftsmanship, and nothing superfluous.

MadCharlotte is sensual, playful, and refined — shoes that celebrate women who live with elegance, freedom, and pleasure on their own terms. In the end, this is why I created MadCharlotte — for the pleasure of that woman, the one who lives life her own way. Something deliciously special, made just for her.
