Following a $1,100 investment in 1990, Steve Madden has expanded over the past thirty-plus years from its initial footwear focus to become one of the most iconic lifestyle and fashion brands in America. In addition to Steve Madden, the company also operates other fashion footwear brands, including Dolce Vita.
Today, Steve Madden is known for its creative designs, inspired by rock and roll and the company’s New York roots. These designs provide an outlet for customers to express their individuality. The product offering also comprises accessories, including watches, jewellery, handbags, womenswear, and hosiery. The Steve Madden brand is sold in 269 company-operated stores across the globe.
Dolce Vita, meanwhile, was founded in New York in 2001 and bought by Steve Madden in 2014. The brand promises ‘one-of-a-kind’ styles that range in price from $80 to $295.
