With almost twenty five years experience in the footwear industry, designer Rachel Matthews first launched the Rachel Simpson brand back in 2008. With a unique signature style and designs which were far from the traditional wedding shoe, Rachel created waves in the bridal industry and was soon the go to brand for brides who wanted something a little different, without compromising on either style or comfort.

In 2012 she added vintage inspired footwear brand Agnes & Norman to the company's portfolio. Named after her Leicester born grandparents (a city synonymous with shoe making and where Rachel trained), this unique label's mission was to create 'shoes like they used to be' for both men and women.Today the new Rachel Simpson brings the best of these two brands together, creating beautifully made, vintage inspired shoes with a fresh modern edge for every occasion. Classic but on trend, timeless but different.
