Havaianas in Oscars 2008

For the 6th consecutive year, Havaianas has the honor of being included in the much-coveted Oscar Basket—a choice set of premium items given to Academy Award nominees.

Featuring styles (developed by ALMAPBBDO) exclusively for the award’s 80th run, this year’s pair showcases the Havaianas Slim Crystal Mesh in gold, embellished with Swarovski crystals by artisans from the Brazilian state of Paraiba for women and the understated Top Metalic in gold for men.

Among this year’s recipients are actors George Clooney, Daniel Day Lewis, Javier Bardem, Cate Blanchett, Marion Cotillard and Ruby Dee; as well as directors Jason Reitman and Ethan and Joel Cohen.

The celebrated Brazilian flip-flops, which were initially seen among internationally known South American models, continue to grace numerous celebrity feet on the walk of fame. And today, as a regular wardrobe staple, the brand’s aesthetic underscores the simple glamour that only Havaianas can provide.
