Perugia opened his first shop in Nice sometime between 1920 and 1922. After moving to Paris, he opened a new boutique, and also became the technical director of a brand called Enzel in 1927, which produced authorized, ready-to-wear versions of his shoes in Europe and the United States. After financial restructuring in 1933, Perugia established the brand Padova. These three shoes come from each of his luxury labels: the peacock-coloured t-strap sandal is Perugia, the red sandal is Enzel, and the green, gold, and black mule is Padova.
