Handmade Women’s Footwear
About Eros and Psyche
With over a century of expertise, tradition, and craftsmanship have been seamlessly woven into the creation of exceptional handmade leather women’s footwear.
The story of our business began in Smyrna, Asia Minor, with our great-grandfather, who specialized in crafting custom-made shoes. This legacy was carried forward by our grandfather, Evangelos Vrekousis, who dressed the most iconic stars of theater, cinema, and music during his time, leaving a lasting mark on the fashion scene. Following him, his son Dimitris established his own business in Athens, and now, the fourth generation continues the tradition through his daughter, Xrisa Vrekousi.
Xrisa, who has inherited not only the passion but also the expertise, took her design skills to the renowned fashion capital of Florence, Italy, where she honed her craft. Today, she leads the family business under the brand “Eros and Psyche”.
In the spirit of this long-standing tradition, Xrisa carefully selects the finest leathers and blends them with an impeccable, contemporary design to create shoes that embody both beauty and comfort. Each pair is a testament to timeless elegance and superior craftsmanship. At Eros and Psyche the goal is not only to create stunning footwear but also to ensure that every design offers an unmatched level of comfort, making every step feel as luxurious as it looks. With a deep commitment to excellence, Xrisa’s creations continue to marry heritage with modern sophistication, offering women footwear that is both a work of art and a true pleasure to wear.
