FESTIVAL footwear just got a whole lot more fashionable.. or is that a tad ridiculous in this disastrous financial climate? Jimmy Choo has collaborated with iconic British brand Hunter to create what have to be the most luxurious Wellington boots around.
Combining the traditional aesthetic of Hunter with the sleekness of Jimmy Choo, the result is a natural rubber boot embossed with the luxury label’s signature crocodile print and branded top bind, a gold buckle and rivet detailing, and leopard print lining.
“I was inspired by images from the festivals of the hip Brit girls in their wellies. This led to our collaboration with Hunter to produce a sleek interpretation of the British classic,” explains Jimmy Choo’s president and founder, Tamara Mellon.
Hunter chairman Peter Mullen adds: “We are delighted to work with Jimmy Choo to create a superbly sophisticated incarnation of our original Wellington boot. Both brands have a strong visual identity which works well combined - the resulting boot has a unique DNA of luxurious practicality.”
The boots will be sold exclusively online at www.jimmychoo.com from June, costing £250. To make sure you don’t miss out, get your name on the waiting list, on sale from May 1. Alternatively, DON’T BE SO RIDICULOUS AND TRY-HARD and wear normal, cheap green wellies !!!
