Jimmy Choo XV: New book

The book takes readers on a visual tour of the brand over the past 15 years using imagery from photographers including Mario Testino and Terry Richardson, as well as fashion magazine editorial, design studio sketches and red carpet paparazzi shots. A foreword is provided by fashion writer Colin McDowell, with an introduction from Jimmy Choo founder and CCO Tamara Mellon.

The book also details the progression of the label by showcasing 15 of its most iconic shoes, which are used to mark milestones within the brand’s history.

Divided into eight chapters, each section of the book describes the design and themes that have influenced the brand. Chapter one reflects on the key celebrities that have helped define the brand, including when Sarah Jessica Parker’s character Carrie Bradshaw wore the Feather shoe in hit TV show Sex & the City; chapter two focuses on the brand’s use of animal prints; while chapter six looks at the power stiletto and its relationship with politicians and royals.
