The Spring 09 Abaeté collection is about the dichotomy of two sides of a girl – one side, reason: the other side, heart. The line is inspired by the good girls we are and the bad girls we want to be. Aligning with this theme, the clothing layers "good girl" and "bad girl" details into a single garment, like a sexy black mesh corset peeks out of a “good girl” outer layer, such as gingham checked fabric.

This season’s Abaeté girl is daring, confident and ambitious.

These original footwear designs are now available in select Payless stores and online at www.payless.com.
