According to the fashion brand, the range celebrates “flip-flops having a major moment on and off the runways”.

The new designs will be available from today (14 May) online, and at Havaianas stores, pop-ups and concessions.

The collaboration comes after Havaianas appointed Gigi Hadid as its global brand ambassador in March. The American model has starred in multiple campaigns for the flip-flop retailer, showing off its most popular designs, including the Brazil Logo and Slim Point.

Speaking at the time, Maria Fernanda Albuquerque, global marketing vice-president for Havaianas, said: “Flip-flops are having a major moment. This summer staple has evolved from humble beginnings into being a celebrated fashion statement. In this context, we are very proud and excited to announce Gigi Hadid as our new global ambassador.”
