The Starling in Botanico Raffia

For an elevated twist on our Starling loafer, we added intricate botanical beadwork that brings texture and modernity to the classic silhouette. The foliage-inspired raffia and beaded upper is hand-crafted and takes an entire day for an artist to complete a pair. We covered our footbeds with a soft and supple faux leather lining for added luxury and durability. The loafer is complete with our signature grosgrain backtab. 

  • Classic smoking slipper flat with 8 mm heel
  • Crafted of premium woven raffia
  • Hand-beaded foliage detailing
  • No-slip rubber sole for indoor + outdoor wear
  • 7 layers of cloud-like comfort in every footbed
  • Our flats are rated five-star fabulous by 25,000+ women

The Starling in Botanico Raffia runs true to size.

  • Free Shipping on U.S. Orders over $85
  • 30-DAY FIT GUARANTEE
  • FREE SHIPPING
  • 7 LAYER COMFORT
THE STARLING in the wild

The Starling Cheetah was my first pair of Birdies. I waited over a month to decided to order them because of the cost and being disappointed with other shoe brands. When they arrived and I opened the package I was thrilled! The quality was beautiful. When I put them on my feet, I swear I heard Angels singing! Yes! They are that comfortable! Thank you Birdies for being everything and more with your... Read more

The Starling Birdies are so comfortable that I own them in multiple colors. Felt so confident about those that the first time I wore them was for a full day of walking around the city, and they did not disappoint! Perfect sizing, no break in time and so very stylish!

They are perfect…the velvet is the way to go. Avoid all the raffia ones… impossible to break in.

While a wide it is a very inflexible material. My husband used his wooden shoes trees to stretch them. I’m stilling wearing them around the house to break in the heel. It’s the fabric. Love the style. I own 4 pairs of velvet Strarlings and they slip right on. I’ll stick with that not not branch out.
