THE ATELIER — PAT DEEPEST BLUE

Sometimes you have to stop and admire your own work.

First introduced in 2020 as an Agnes Bethel anniversary design, Pat Deepest Blue brought together soft velvet, a strong regal blue, gold detailing and a silhouette designed to be unapologetically sexy.

She has been imitated since. But the original tells its own story.

Here, our Co-Founder and Designer Justice takes another look at Pat — the details, the proportions, the beauty of his creation.

Often duplicated. Never replicated.

From the hands of the designer.
From the Agnes Bethel Atelier.

Some designs make it. Some have to wait.

Gia Hybrid was first introduced during Fashion Week San Diego, but the version you see here was never released.

She was raw. Unfinished. Design discrepancies sent her back into the archive—but the idea never left us.

Sometimes a design doesn’t need to be abandoned. It needs time.

Reimagined. Refined. Finally realized in her full capacity.

THE WOMAN

She can paint the town red.
And paint the damn wall herself.

Pat Royalty Red.

Agnes Bethel was created for women to live in. For the glamour, the work, the projects, the plans—and everything that happens in between.

Because a beautiful shoe was never meant to sit still.

THE ATELIER

Some designs have a very short life—and that’s part of what makes them special.

Bianca Lavender never made it into production. Only two samples were ever made. One debuted on the runway. The other was gifted to Allison Andrews Wolk, founder of Fashion Week San Diego.

1 of 2. Never produced.

A rare little piece of Agnes Bethel history—and a reminder that not every design has to make it to production to leave its mark.

FROM THE ARCHIVE
ARCHIVE NO. 05 — THE WALL

October 2025.

A study in proportion, restraint and presence.
Clean lines. Oversized tailoring. And a pair of boots that needed very little introduction.

Some images aren’t meant to sell you something.
They’re meant to make you feel something.

Agnes Bethel.

THE WOMAN — VANESSA CURRY

There is power in a woman who is completely at ease with herself.

Unscripted. Sensual. Assured.

Confidence isn’t something she puts on. It’s already there.

Vanessa Curry in a quiet moment with Pat — a reflection of what Agnes Bethel has always believed:

The woman makes the shoe.

Never the other way around.

THE ATELIER — ORIGIN

Before the collections.
Before the runway.
Before any of it—

there was a bet.

A bet between Justice and Leslie that became an idea. An idea that became a sketch. And eventually, a shoe.

Shot around 2017, this footage takes us back to the early days of Agnes Bethel. Behind the camera was fellow veteran , documenting Justice at work—sketches on the table, ideas taking shape and, in his hands, Origin.

Our first shoe.

The one that started this journey.

We named her Origin for a reason.

Looking back at this footage nearly a decade later feels different. At the time, we were simply building, creating and figuring out what Agnes Bethel could become.

We didn’t know where the journey would take us.

We weren’t simply documenting the making of a shoe.

We were documenting the beginning of Agnes Bethel.

FROM THE ARCHIVE
ARCHIVE No. 04 | The Cafe

Before everything became so polished, there was simply the woman, her shoe, and the moment.

Agnes Bethel has always been about more than what a woman wears.

It’s about the story she’s telling when she enters a room.
How she takes up space.
How she makes an ordinary afternoon feel like an occasion.

THE WOMAN

Softness was never the same thing as weakness.

She can be feminine and formidable.
Elegant and unafraid.
Graceful—and still know how to fight.

There has never been one way to be an Agnes Bethel woman.

Agnes Bethel. For every side of her.

THE ATELIER — LENA

Not everything that happens in the atelier is about making something new.

Sometimes, it’s about taking care of what we’ve already made.

Lena, cleaned, conditioned and waiting to be packed for her next photo shoot collaboration.

Named for the incomparable Lena Horne, she was produced in small batches and quietly became one of those Agnes Bethel designs that traveled farther than we ever expected.

Worn by Carrie Underwood on multiple occasions and Ryan Michelle Bathe.

And still, we’ve always thought of Lena as one of our most underrated beauties.

Maybe that was part of her charm.

She never needed to be the loudest shoe in the room.

She just needed the right woman to walk in her.
