Speaking about her collaboration with Butterfly Twists, Catherine said of how the venture began: ‘I had a horrendous blister from a pair of shoes at an airport and I just couldn’t keep going – I was nearly crying as I walked. 

‘So, I went into this shop in the airport and bought a pair of Butterfly Twists – that’s when I first saw them. 

‘Then, when I started collaborating with brands for Casa Zeta-Jones, I thought, who do I want to collaborate with? What shoes do I love?

‘I wanted something for women like me – running around, driving, walking the dog, shopping, working, doing their thing – and what I wear. So I thought, Butterfly Twists.

‘I had so much fun working with them and really creating and collaborating. I took what they do best and created my own within it.’

Gushing about how efficient the shoes are, she added: ‘They are vegan, super comfortable and able to be rolled into a little pouch sized form so you can throw them in your cross body bag. 

‘They’re that small. You can fit loads of them in there. It was a lot of fun and it worked out really well.’

Going on to describe why she wanted to create the range, Catherine described it as ‘an extension’ of herself.

I’m not interested in putting my name on anything to make a bit of money,’ she explained. ‘I love creating, and this brand just represents everything that I love in the world and everything that I need in my life. 

‘I want to give it to my customers and my followers as an extension of me, but which is accessible and affordable. It’s for every woman. 

‘You can take the girl out of Wales, but you can’t take Wales out of the girl – I’m always looking for a bargain and something that looks more expensive than it really is.

‘Even if it is a really expensive piece – they call it an investment piece – I want to make a deal so that I’m getting it at a really good price.

‘I’m like that, so my brand is like that. I’m always looking at my customers’ price point and the practicality. 

‘I designed a bag for a very high end company many years ago and then when I found out how much it would cost to make, let alone how much it would have to cost my customer to make any profit, I went “screw that”. 

‘So yeah, I just want to bring all the special things that I love in my life and my tried and tested products over my travels to my customer.’ 

Stylish and comfortable: Catherine chose to mainly design flats as she wanted something that was 'super elegant, super comfortable'
