Flowers Butterflies

The "Butterflies Collection: Tribute to the Mirabal Sisters" is a tribute to three brave heroines who sacrificed their lives for freedom in the Dominican Republic. The story of the Mirabal Sisters, Patria, Minerva, and María Teresa, resonates in every detail of this beautiful sandal, embodying the strength, determination, and spirit of resistance that characterize us.

The three heroines were brutally murdered in 1960 because of their fight for freedom in the Dominican Republic. The Mirabal Sisters became prominent figures in Dominican and world history for their struggle against a tyrant who had oppressed the Dominican people.

The legacy of the Mirabal sisters remains intact, and in 1999, the United Nations General Assembly designated November 25, the day of their assassination, as the "International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women."

The Tribute Collection features the art of the renowned Dominican plastic artist and designer Inma Medina, as well as the direction and creativity of Numa Torres, also Dominican, who made possible such symbolic and emotive designs in the magnificent fusion of cultures and artistic inspiration, creating women's footwear full of history, art, and uniqueness!

Crafted by Numa by Spanians, with the finest materials and designed with meticulous attention to detail, our sandals capture the essence of contemporary fashion merged with history and culture. From the vibrant tones evoking premium Dominican cocoa, poppies, the vitality of the Dominican Republic's nature, to the unforgettable memories paying homage to the rich heritage of the Mirabal Sisters, each pair is an exclusive work of art with style and elegance.

By acquiring a pair of these sandals, you join us in celebrating their legacy and in the commitment to keeping their memory alive. This limited edition is more than fashion; it is a constant reminder of the courage and determination that the Mirabal Sisters demonstrated in their struggle for freedom and justice.

It's your chance to make a fashion statement with a purpose! The same purpose that inspired our designer Numa Torres to create this tribute to her compatriots using butterflies as a symbol of transformation, bravery, sisterhood, and freedom... the freedom to be yourself!
