First look: Game of Thrones’ Kit Harington for Jimmy Choo

We told you a few months ago that Game of Thrones hunk Kit Harrington had just landed one of the biggest modelling gigs of them all when it was announced that he would be the new face of Jimmy Choo; and now it’s time to look at his debut ad campaign images in all their glory. What do you think? The British actor’s debut Jimmy Choo ads are just as drool-worthy as we expected, especially as he has swapped his armour for suave and sophisticated clothing such as crisp shirts and expertly tailored jackets instead. He was shot by Peter Lindbergh in LA, which we imagine he was thrilled to bits about… “It is incredibly exciting to work with a brand that is so highly regarded in fashion so it is a real honour to be the face of their campaign,” he gushed. “The shoot was great fun and the location was stunning with panoramic views across LA and working with Peter was an amazing experience, he is such a talented photographer and gave great direction.” We don’t think it takes a talented photographer to make Kit Harington look dreamy though. What do you think of the Jimmy Choo ad campaign?

Make your heels even more personal with the Jimmy Choo made-to-order service!

If you thought Jimmy Choo was heaven-sent-perfection and gave you everything you wanted, then we’re afraid to tell you that you were wrong… We wouldn’t for a moment suggest that Jimmy Choo isn’t all those wonderful things we just mentioned, but one thing is missing: a made-to-order service. Until now, that is! Jimmy Choo customers can now make their shoes even more personal to them, by choosing from a range of styles, colours, fabrics, heel heights and more. The more bespoke, the better!  “Throughout the years at Jimmy Choo, we have set out to maintain the same level of personalised service and attention to detail as when we were crafting shoes one pair at a time, for one client at a time,” said creative director Sandra Choi. “Bringing this Made-to-Order service directly to our customers in our stores allows us to faithfully preserve our heritage of personalisation, and allow every woman to have a unique pair of Jimmy Choo shoes.” We couldn’t have put it better ourselves. Jimmy Choo customers can even choose to have their initials on the soles of the shoes if they want, which we think is a pretty neat little personal touch, don’t you? The Jimmy Choo made-to-order service launches in the brand’s London Sloane Street store from today. See you there! [Harper’s Bazaar] [Image]

Nicole Kidman is almost unrecognisable in new Jimmy Choo ads

Nicole Kidman, is that you? The leggy blonde actress looks almost unrecognisable in the brand new Jimmy Choo pre-fall 2014 ad campaign – if it wasn’t for her long stems we think we would have had some trouble identifying her! Nicole looks fresh-faced and somewhat dishevelled (a million miles away from the expertly put together actress we are used to seeing), not to mention about 20 years younger in the pic above. Still, the ad features Nicole and Jimmy Choos so we can’t help but love it. Maybe this was all part of photographer Willy Vanderperre’s vision… “I really enjoyed working with Willy, he gave me such great direction, it was like being on a film set,” Nicole said of the shoot. “It was fun to embrace a more rebellious spirit for Jimmy Choo; we listened to a lot of great rock music to get in the mood for the shoot.” And having seen the accompanying video below, we can’t help but agree with her.

Kit Harington for Jimmy Choo

It’s all about the ad campaigns this morning. First we told you that Clémence Poésy is returning for Chloé, and now it’s just been announced that Game of Thrones hunk Kit Harington will be the new face of Jimmy Choo.  The 27-year-old British actor will reportedly be the face of the brand new Jimmy Choo Man fragrance which launches in September this year, and also star in ad campaigns for shoes, bags and sunglasses in partnership with Carrera. He’s going to be a very busy boy indeed! “Kit perfectly embodies the Jimmy Choo man,” said creative director Sandra Choi. “He has a natural and alluring masculinity and an effortless sense of style. His cool attitude and smouldering sensuality belie a true British gentleman.” We couldn’t agree more. And he’s pretty easy on the eye too, in case it wasn’t obvious… [Harper’s Bazaar]

Highlights from the Jimmy Choo prefall 2014 press day

Tube strikes? Ha, we laugh in the face of tube strikes – nothing, and we really do mean nothing – can stand in  the way of us heading to Jimmy Choo HQ in London’s Victoria and drooling over staring at the brand spanking new prefall 2014 collection. And the Jimmy Choo.08 collection, to use its full and proper name,  really was brand spanking new, as we saw styles we hadn’t really seen from the English brand before – and that’s largely thanks to creative director Sandra Choi’s new vision. “I love feminine silhouettes, and Jimmy Choo has become synonymous with the iconic stiletto which we continue to reinterpret with every collection ,” said creative director Sandra Choi. “I know, from my own busy life, and from speaking to other women, that we also crave the same glamour and attitude in shoes that we can run around in all day, which is why I created the CHOO.08 mood.” Glamorous, feminine shoes with bags of attitude are exactly what we saw before us in the stunning showroom, each piece fiercer and more covetable than the last, if you can believe it. Perfect for the modern woman on the go, the collection keeps up with her fast paced yet ultra glamorous life; flats, trainers (and we do love a good Jimmy Choo trainer!), sandals and the sparkliest heels imaginable, this collection has it all! Flats and sparkles Prints and vivid colours Comfy flats and bold trainers   Wow factor “look at me” shoes and accessories

Michelle Obama rocks Jimmy Choo’s over-the-knee boots

We’re major lovers of over the knee boots; why else would we have dedicated an entire feature to them? (Click here to check out some of our favourites that we selected a few months ago.) Over the knee boots are the hottest footwear trend right now; you know it, we know it, and First Lady Michelle Obama knows it too. Three cheers for the trendy FLOTUS! Michelle Obama decided to rock the black Jimmy Choo Esther boots at the Sunday Service at Saint John’s Episcopal Church in Washington DC at the weekend, looking chic and fashion-forward with the rest of the Obama clan. MObama wore her stunning boots with a burgundy ensemble that consisted of a dress and a matching cardigan, as well as a black clutch which offset the burgundy hues of the outfit perfectly. And how cute do the First Lady and her daughter look in matching outfit colours? Are the Obamas one of the most stylish families to live at the White House? Let us know your thoughts!

Lunchtime Buy: Jimmy Choo Tokyo leather and glitter high-top sneakers

Glitter and sequins are having a serious moment on the catwalks of the world right now, and as a result, we are pretty obsessed with all things sparkly too. Not that we need a reason or an excuse though, we are magpies at heart after all… Although they are trainers, we wouldn’t necessarily use these Jimmy Choo Tokyo leather and glitter high-top sneakers for their primary purpose: i.e, training in the gym or going for a run. Instead, we would feel a lot better if we paired them with some black skinny jeans or even some metallic leggings (maybe yesterday’s lunchtime buy – the Donna Karan sparkly leggings perhaps?) instead. After all, you don’t want them to get ruined do you? These Jimmy Choo sneakers will look fabulous no matter how you wear them! Jimmy Choo Tokyo leather and glitter high-top sneakers, £425

Lunchtime Buy: Jimmy Choo Tokyo crystal-embellished suede, leather and patent sneakers

Fancy an alternative to heels that is equally as chic and glamorous for both day and evening? Only the shoe master himself, Jimmy Choo, could design a pair of statement sneakers that would not only look effortless during the day but would be equally as cool to wear to late night cocktails with the girls. Whether you choose to dress these shining, sparkly babies up or down, you’ll certainly be gleaming with style this season. Jimmy Choo’s signature ‘Tokyo’ design will coordinate with just about everything, and will add a hint of bedazzlement to your summer footwear collection. Who said flats had to be boring? Expertly crafted from suede, leather and patent-leather, this crystal-embellished pair is grounded with a thick, durable sole, ultimately making them last the test of time. Dressing down? We say no off-duty wardrobe is complete without unique sneakers that have the ability to draw all eyes down in an instant. Our laidback style option would be to wear with a skater dress and an oversized matching metallic bag for funky fresh daytime look. Dressing up? These crystal-embellished patent sneakers will be in a league of their own come the evening when paired with skinny jeans, an embroidered top and metallic accessories. How can one resist?

Nicole Kidman’s Jimmy Choo autumn/winter 2013 ad campaign is here!

We told you back in May that Jimmy Choo had enlisted the help of Nicole Kidman for its autumn/winter 2013 ad campaign images, and now the time has come to check the pictures out in all their glory. Exciting! Nicole, who was easily one of the constantly best-dressed ladies during Awards Season and the Cannes Film Festival, has one again outdone herself, and oozes the utmost glamour, sophistication and class in the ad campaign which was shot by Mikael Jansson. “I really enjoyed being able to play a role that was strong, sexy and in control,” Nicole said. “I got into a relationship with the photographer and Mikael is very intuitive, he knows what I am thinking and feeling and is able to translate it through the camera.” Well said! We weren’t too sure how we felt about the faux bob at first, as we associate Nicole with long, blonde, glossy locks, but we definitely think she made it work. Such is the power of an Academy Award winning actress. Oh and speaking of actress, Nicole also appears in a short Jimmy Choo film which you can see below. Would have been a bit of a waste to tap an Oscar-winner and not make the most of it, right? What do you guys think of Nicole’s ad campaign images and accompanying short film?

Nicole Kidman is the new face of Jimmy Choo!

It’s just been revealed that Oscar-winning Aussie actress Nicole Kidman is the new face of Jimmy Choo, and will appear in the brand’s upcoming autumn/winter 2013 ad campaigns. What a great signing! “I’m such a great admirer and feel enormously honoured to be working with Nicole Kidman,” Jimmy Choo creative director Sandra Choi said. “Nicole is one of the finest actresses in the world, who I knew could convey the empowered glamour of the brand. But she is also so nuanced and refined; she brings an attitude of defiance, strength, sensuality and elegance.” We can’t argue with that! Nicole has racked up a pretty impressive set of ad campaigns over the years – from the likes of Chanel No.5 to Omega watches – and we’re almost certain her stint Jimmy Choo will be just as successful. We can’t wait to see the finished result! [Telegraph]

Tali Lennox scoops Best Dressed of the Week in Tocca and Jimmy Choo

Taking a much needed detour from red carpet gowns, we’re focusing our Best Dressed beady eye on a suitably suited lady this week. Landing the Best Dressed of the Week spot is Brit star model, Tali Lennox. The leggy lovely attended the Jimmy Choo and Christie’s Luncheon 2013 in New York wearing an electric blue Tocca trouser suit, accented perfectly by a glittery, yellow knit and Jimmy Choo accessories (natch). Tali chose the metallic pink Lance Orchid Mirror sandal, worn with a matching clutch, and opted for a slick of turquoise on her nails. A slicked back bun and pared down make-up completed Tali’s look – one we just can’t fault! We love how she’s worn three statement colours together, but keeping the rest of her look super-simple, it works. Heels and a suit have never looked sexier. What do you think of A-listers ‘feminising’ suits? Has Tali pulled it off with aplomb? (We think so!) [Image source: Vogue.co.uk]

Jimmy Choo to launch new London flagship menswear store

Jimmy Choo will be launching a brand new flagship menswear store on Dover Street next spring, which means there’s another great reason to drag your man with you on your London shopping expedition. Not only can he carry your shopping bags like the loving, doting gentleman he is, and offer you a much-needed second opinion in the dressing rooms, but he can now treat himself to some Jimmy Choo threads as a little reward. Win win! “We are thrilled to be opening a new men’s standalone store in Mayfair, the spiritual home of the Jimmy Choo man,” said Jimmy Choo CEO Pierre Denis. “Dover Street is fast becoming a shopping destination for luxury fashion and cutting-edge designers. The store is an exciting next step in the growth of Jimmy Choo Men.” The 1,200 square-foot, two-floor shop will reportedly replace the existing store in Burlington Arcade, and will feature everything from shoes to bags to scarves and other leather goods among other things. Exciting stuff, no? [Telegraph] [Image]

Jimmy Choo launches its biker sunglasses… and we love them!

Time to give your feet a rest and treat another part of your body to some Jimmy Choo now – your eyes! The fab brand has just released some stunning ‘Biker’ sunglasses, which have a vintage design and were apparently inspired by the laid back style of the West Coast. We like them. We like them a lot! “Adding an instant rock ‘n’ roll attitude to your look, the androgynous geometric shape and injection-moulded frames feature discreet details on the temple tips,” reads a press release. “Small metal studs in the shapes of playing card suits – spades, hearts, diamonds and clubs mirroring the draped biker chains on the versatile ‘Biker’ bag.” The Biker sunglasses are available in gloss black, matte black, nude, and ‘Havana’ colours and are available to buy right now! Tempting, huh?!

Chic Shoegasms: Jimmy Choo Folly snakeskin wedges

Usually I would swoon at the sight of a pair of Jimmy Choos, but there’s just something about these Folly suede and snakeskin Wedges that aren’t quite doing it for me – and I can’t quite put my finger on as to why. The best thing to do in such a dilemma? Create the legendary pros and cons list, of course: Pros: Like you don’t know already, snakeskin is going to be huge next season. Tuck away your animal print and start hunting down some scaly styles pronto! Wedges have been the shoe to rock this season, and they’re proving to be just as popular for autumn. Plus, they’re infinitely comfortable. The skinny ankle strap will effortlessly elongate those pins. They’re way easier to walk in than heels (and we all know that when you hit a cobbled road this is always a bonus). Cons: The £495 price tag is a little steep. They don’t inspire me to run over anyone or anything in order to get my hands on them. I love the wedge, but sometimes I think a slender stiletto creates a chicer silhouette. The muted tones of the snakeskin on contrasting black suede really aren’t doing it for me, especially after the colour blocking mayhem of this season. The verdict? All in all, I think I’ll be passing on these – you’ve got to really love something to part with so much cash, right? Jimmy Choo Folly suede and snakeskin Wedges, £495, available at MyTheresa.

Lusting after: Pippa Middleton’s Jimmy Choo Zeta clutch

Upstaging the bride in the style stakes is the cardinal bridesmaid sin. And when that bride is the future Queen of England, you’ve got another thing coming. Instead of merging into the haze of stellar guests at Westminster Abbey on 29 April, the hottest chief bridesmaid on the planet and sister of Kate Middleton, Pippa, turned up the fashion heat a notch or 10. Wowing us with a stunning cowl neck McQueen creation for the main ceremony and accruing some well-deserved derrière appreciation in the process, Pippa slipped into a demurely sexy emerald green Temperley gown for the evening reception at Buckingham Palace. But we simply can’t take our eyes of her sparkling clutch. Pippa accessorised with an eye-catching champagne-hued Jimmy Choo Zeta sparkle clutch, which we think adds extra oomph to her decorously elegant look, and the glitter effect is offset perfectly against the jewel-toned gown. Doubtlessly, Jimmy Choo is the go-to brand for seriously stylish party pieces, and having accessorised several guests at the Royal wedding, Tamara Mellon has got a lot to smile about. Pippa’s subtle-hued version is just as gorgeous as the delicious gold and bronze glitter version we’re lusting after. You can get yours for £265 at JimmyChoo.com here.

Sure, the designs may be considered to be playing it safe for some, but if you’re looking for a classic, comfortable bag or suitcase that will stay chic and stylish for decades then the 24:7 collection offers you exactly that. Our favourite? The Romeo bag in a camel mock croc – the price tag is easily justifiable with, “it’s an investment piece”.  And if you don’t take our word for it, the bags have been spotted on the likes of Elle McPherson, Kate Hudson Kylie, Cameron Diaz and Heidi Klum. Hey, if it’s good enough for them… Your destination could be Bognor Regis or Paris – with with one of these bags on your arm, it doesn’t matter where you’re off to, you’ll always look glamourous.

Jimmy Choo’s luminescent shoes

Well, well, what have we here? A super-shoe style statement? A glow in the dark light? Er, both, actually. Forget kids trainers with those flashing air bubbles back in the 90’s, light-up shoes have climbed a long way up fashion’s ladder. Jimmy Choo’s latest design is a real masterpiece, that’s for sure. The heels of his gorgeous zip-up strappy ankle platforms apparently light up as you walk. Yes, really. It seems our talks of fashion of the future came to light a little sooner than expected; these shoes are one way to find your friends in the dark. Probably ones to split the crowd, we actually think these shoes are pretty amazing. Patent black leather, florescent strap detail, platformed sole, zipped ankle caging and killer light-up heel? Yes, please. If you fear his luminescent shoes will be a little over budget, hold tight, the low-cost luxe Choo collection for H&M will be hitting stores shortly. [Images]
