JAKARTA - The fashion world always has a unique way to celebrate nostalgia. This time, two big names with contrasting DNA - Melissa from Brazil who is bold and Scholl who is thick with Italian orthopedic heritage - meet in a limited edition capsule collection. This collaboration is not just combining logos, but an experiment in texture and shape that brings classic silhouettes to a more contemporary direction.
Reinterpretation of Two Icons
At the center of the collection is the meeting of two legendary designs: Melissa Possession, the jelly sandal that defined the style of the 90s, and Scholl Pescura, the iconic wooden sandal that has been part of fashion history since 1956.
In this collection, we see the results of an interesting "marriage". There are silhouettes that combine the typical Possession upper with a wooden heel that becomes the main structure of Pescura. In addition, there is also Pescura which is completely reinterpreted using Melissa's Melflex™ material which is flexible, giving a modern impression to the design that has lasted for almost 70 years.
Color and Craftsmanship Touch
Visually, this collection plays in a sophisticated realm. Instead of neon colors that are too striking, the chosen palette tends to be timeless such as dark green, brown, black, to a minimalist crystal-clear option.
Despite its very "fashion-forward" appearance, the functional aspect is not left behind. The use of Scholl's anatomical footbed technology ensures that this high aesthetic is still supported by the comfort of a capable anatomical foot - a plus for those who have high mobility but still want to look chic.
Tips for Matching
To maximize the look of this collection, fashion enthusiasts can play with contrasts. The bold silhouette of this sandal will be very interesting if combined with:
Minimalist Outfit: Use clean-cut pieces of clothing to let the footwear be the statement piece.
Pastel colors: For a softer, more feminine impression, calm colors will balance the shiny Melflex™ material.
The Melissa/Scholl collection has been available in the Indonesian market since mid-March 2026, offering a fresh option for those looking for footwear with historical value but still relevant to current trends.
