MUMBAI: Life may not always be a stage, but Bata wants women to stride like they own it. The footwear giant has unveiled the Victoria Ballerina, billed as its most comfortable ballerina ever, designed for women who walk with purpose and flair. The launch is part of Bata’s global “Make Your Way” campaign, introduced during the brand’s 130th anniversary in 2024. The Victoria Ballerina draws on the spirit of dance long a symbol of strength, rhythm, and freedom of movement reimagined for modern women who wear ballerinas not just for the stage, but for everyday life.
Blending on-trend design, comfort and affordability, the collection reflects Bata’s promise to marry style with functionality. “Every day is a chance to make your way,” said Bata India chief strategy & business development officer Badri Beriwal. “With Victoria Ballerina, we are celebrating not only the power of the perfect shoe, but the power of women who dance through life with strength.”
The Victoria name is no coincidence. It embodies confidence, triumph, and motion, a mindset as much as a design. The collection is positioned as more than footwear: a companion for women to move freely, express themselves boldly, and embrace the daily rhythm of their journeys.
Backed by a 360-degree global marketing rollout, the campaign is set to amplify across digital, outdoor, and in-store platforms, spotlighting ballerinas as both a style staple and a symbol of empowerment.
From the cobbled streets of Europe to the bustling metros of India, Bata is betting big that the Victoria Ballerina will help women not just walk, but make their way.
