Charlotte Olympia

Do not call Charlotte Dellal a socialite. The London-it girl is social, to be sure, but the "lite" form of the word often implies no real day job and Ms. Dellal has certainly got her hands full as the creator and designer of her footwear label, Charlotte Olympia. This is not a mere hobby: Dellal is a truly talented footwear designer. Since launching in 2006, she has collaborated with Henry Holland and Peter Som and her statement shoes have become fast favorites of the fashion set (including Kate Moss and Sienna Miller, really, two of the only trendsetter names needed to affirm a brand's it-factor).
