Giuseppe Zanotti is an Italian shoe brand that is known for its luxury footwear and purse clutches. Created under the roof of Vicini S.p.A. in Italy, it was started by a designer of the same name. The shoes and handbags are exclusively manufactured in Italy and are exported worldwide.

The man behind the Giuseppe Zanotti brand bears the same name as the shoe company and began the brand with a grand vision of quality and sophistication. He and his wife Cinzia founded Vincini in 1994, which would expand into a shoe manufacturing center that would encompass the Giuseppe Zanotti brand as well as several others. Today Vincini employs over 300 employees and has headquarters in Milan, New York, Paris, Moscow, Las Vegas and London.

"The easiest, sexiest, most perfect shoe is a flat sandal with a bit of sparkle. I love it. My favourite is when I'm somewhere cold, like Russia, and I see a woman wearing sandals, white jeans and a fur coat."—Giuseppe ZanottiTimes: Fashionista: Shoe Designer Giuseppe Zanotti(July 30, 2008)
