BUS STOP Shoe Boutique

My Story...

“I'm Elena Brennan and I was born in London but I now call Philadelphia my home. In 2007, I left corporate America to become a female entrepreneur, and that is when BUS STOP shoe boutique was born. I became a shoe designer in 2015. My first shoe collection – 12 BUS STOP X oxfords – were designed in collaboration with All Black, a designer I’ve had a relationship with from day one. Since then I have launched over ten collections, all classics with a twist, timeless and season-less which means they won’t be out of fashion when the next trend hits, and they can be worn throughout the year. I’m always adding new styles to the ever growing #BusStopX silhouettes. Women feel good, different, unique, edgy, and above all comfortable when they rock a pair of my designs.

The Tie Dye collection was to die for, it featured sneakers, oxfords as well as booties. The athleisure mini-capsule collection launched Winter 2020, who doesn’t love sneakers? Each collection is exclusive, limited edition (1 of 15) and available exclusively at BUS STOP shoe boutique and online. My latest designs are all about starting afresh post-pandemic. The ANEW snakeskin collection available in 3 drops - May/September/November 2021.

I'm elated to have won a Gold Award for Best International Business Woman of the Year in October 2021. The Best Business Women Awards, a prestigious UK organisation recognises the achievement of women across a wide range of business categories in the UK and globally.
