Santoni has arrived on one of Monte Carlo’s most polished addresses with a boutique that suits both the brand and the setting.
The Italian footwear maison’s new space at 27 Avenue de la Costa brings together hand-finished shoes, warm Riviera interiors and a more personal approach to luxury retail.
For a family-owned house built on craft rather than noise, Monaco feels like a natural next step.
At a glance

Avenue de la Costa gets an Italian craft address
Monte Carlo has no shortage of luxury storefronts, but Santoni’s arrival feels particularly well matched to the Principality’s taste for discretion and precision.
The Marche-based brand has long built its reputation on leatherwork, hand-finishing and an understanding of elegance that doesn’t need to announce itself from across the room.
The boutique also extends Santoni’s international presence after recent openings in Milan, New York and Doha.
In Monaco, the message is less about scale and more about proximity, placing the maison in front of clients who understand the value of a well-made loafer, driver or slipper.
Riviera colours and intimate materials
Spread across two levels, the new boutique has been designed as more than a simple retail floor.
Embossed surfaces, soft fabrics and warm mineral finishes create a quieter atmosphere than the high-gloss template often associated with luxury shopping.
Champagne and blush tones soften the space, while marble, travertine and accents of orange velvet give the interior a Riviera mood without turning it into a theme.
That restraint matters because Santoni’s products reward close attention.
The appeal is in the hand-finished leather, the depth of colour, the polish of the edges and the kind of proportion that makes a shoe feel refined before any branding is noticed.
One Live personalisation comes to Monaco
The Monte Carlo boutique joins a select group of Santoni locations offering One Live, the brand’s personalisation service.
Clients can customise small leather goods with engraved initials and symbols, adding a more intimate layer to pieces designed for daily use.
The service also extends to co-created versions of the Carlo and Carla loafers through a choice of interchangeable tassels.
It’s a smart fit for Monaco, where luxury shoppers are often looking for individuality rather than novelty.
The Souvenir Monte Carlo capsule
To mark the opening, Santoni has introduced the Souvenir Monte Carlo capsule, available exclusively at the new boutique.
The collection draws on Monaco’s red and white palette and applies it to a curated selection of men’s and women’s styles.
Key pieces include the Didi slipper, the Off-Duty sneaker and the Carlo driver loafer, alongside small leather accessories in boutique-only colourways.
The idea is simple but effective, turning a purchase into a memory of place without losing Santoni’s understated identity.
Rather than leaning on overt motifs, the capsule uses colour and context to connect the product to the Principality.
