If you've been looking everywhere for the perfect shoes to last through the warmer seasons, we get it. Once you're settled on getting your hands on some for women, the next step is finding the perfect pair. To make things a little easier, we've curated some suggestions of the best options from one of our favorite brand — Jimmy Choo. Jimmy Choo Autumn/Winter 2020 collection is inspired by the notion of bringing cultures together, not pushing them apart. Sandra Choi The collection’s twin muses are Talitha Getty and Tina Chow, both of whom crossed cultures fearlessly, ever-curious, they drew inspirations from different backgrounds weaving them together.
“Glamour must be cultured - fed by art and aesthetics and in turn reflecting them. It is somethinguniversally prized, almost magically created - like a pearl. This season, I was thinking aboutpreciousness, about refinement and elevation, about paying attention to details. Creating something beautiful, artful and considered. Something designed to last.” - Sandra Choi
The new eclectic collection of shoes fuses different approaches and aesthetics, with references borrowed from the notion of travelling, through cultures and times.
This season, street style stars let their animal instincts take over with bold and wild prints. In particular, loud leopard print was a favourite amongst the fashionistas and appeared on a variety of garments. Patchwork is an artisanal reflection of cultural fusion: here, it is explored in graphic contrasts of embossed snake and calf leather in the MARCELA pump, MARCEL mule and MABYN boots (black one with a brown insert) and BECA boots (hell brown). The sharp, asymmetric square toe - a new silhouette that dominates - is a visual echo of the facets of the Jimmy Choo jewel, and each is balanced on the new wardrobe of sculptural heels – the ‘Kick’, the ‘Scoop’, and the ‘V’ heel which are introduced for Autumn/Winter 2020.
A fresh wave of footwear trends was ushered through as we entered a new decade in 2020. One oft he newest trends in 2020 is „Arty Heels“.
Symbolic of purity, loyalty and wisdom pearls are a powerful leitmotif of the collection, used as studding, embroideries and embellishment. Pearls of wisdom, cultured pearls: they epitomise thecreative approach. Jewel embroideries of motifs drawn from the “Toile de Choo” pattern also emblazon the brown SABER sock-boot balanced atop a mother of kick heel.
The black SABER model - knit-sock with W Marble Heel includes the JC logo woven into jacquard. They are also translated to three-dimensional brooch like embroideries on the delicate lace on the LYZ red-pink evening pump.Throughout, there is an elegant tone - a notion of dressing up, not down. That translates from evening styles to sports, from high-octane to casual ease, from occasion to everyday.
