Centric Brands, which co-owns the brand in a joint venture with
Erin and Sara Foster, is working to build the Foster sisters’
modern, clean and distinct style into a powerful global lifestyle
brand.
“The Favorite Daughter brand has built a tremendous following
through the honesty and humor of Erin and Sara coupled with the
high-quality and design of the apparel collection. To build off
this successful foundation, we felt the time was right to launch a
new category in footwear to help broaden the reach of the brand. We
chose a partner in Caleres that has the expertise in design, scale,
and global reach to bring our vision to life and to continue to
drive growth,” said Jason Rabin, CEO of Centric Brands.
“We had a lot of conversations about which category Favorite
Daughter should venture into next, and we are so excited that it is
shoes,” said Erin and Sara Foster. “We have become a brand that is
known for quality and shoes will be no exception. These are the
shoes we want and need in our own closets.”
“Favorite Daughter is a new brand that is connecting culture to
content and fashion,” said Jay Schmidt, president and CEO of
Caleres. “The brand has incredible momentum and a very strong point
of view, and we felt that from our first meeting. I’m continually
impressed by our design and product team at Caleres, and this
partnership illustrates that we have become the chosen partner for
another leading, contemporary, fashion brand and game-changing
entrepreneurs.”
Erin and Sara Foster, working closely with Natelle Baddeley,
Caleres SVP and chief design and product officer, conceptualized
the line from the point of view of a capsule versus collection
posture rooted in the essentialism ethos of the Favorite Daughter
brand overall. Favorite Daughter Shoes is a tightly curated
assortment from soft construction timeless/boyish loafers, quilted
low profile sneakers, chic ballets, t-strap/refined heeled pumps
and boots featuring timeless buckles on removable straps to provide
styling options. The capsule collection is crafted in soft nappas,
exotic leathers, satins, velvets and subtle suedes and will feature
a cushioned footbed using athletic grade foams not typically found
in dress shoes.
Favorite shoes will retail from $195 to $495 and will be
available at FavoriteDaughter.com, in Favorite Daughter stores and
at select better department stores.

About the Favorite Daughter x Dr. Scholl’s
Collaboration
In advance of the full line for Fall 2025, Favorite Daughter
joins the lineup of brands that have collaborated with the iconic
Dr. Scholl’s Shoes. The collaboration capsule, which features the
first ever kitten heel version of Dr. Scholl’s iconic Original
Sandal and a fashion take on the brand’s viral Time Off sneaker,
will debut in May 2025. The capsule is highlighted by special
materials and details, including croco, hair-calf, and brogue
detailing. Dr. Scholl’s Shoes x Favorite Daughter will retail for
$225 (sandal) and $150 (sneaker) and be available at
DrSchollsShoes.com, FavoriteDaughter.com and in Favorite Daughter
stores in early May 2025.
“When we were in ninth grade, there was nothing cooler than
wearing a pair of Dr. Scholl’s slides,” Erin and Sara Foster
recall. “We designed a fresh take on one of our favorite looks so
fans of both brands can get that feeling too.”
“True to Dr. Scholl’s and Favorite Daughter, this collab is the
perfect blend of originality and self-expression with that
just-right touch of nostalgia,” said Katie Moore, VP of design for
Dr. Scholl’s Shoes. “I absolutely love the fresh take on our OG
sandal as a kitten heel. The special details make these the next
signature favorite in everyone’s closet.”
