I’ve clearly been in a box lately because up until today I was not aware that Jimmy Choo was bringing glitz and glamour to the masses by providing a line for H&M. I was reading a new blog today (well new for me anyway) called Le City Kitty by the lovely Christina and I read an article she wrote about this.

Jimmy Choo has now exceedingly blown my mind with his new capsule collection for H&M. Choo’s efforts in creating brilliant shoes, and handbags for women has surpassed, time and time, my own expectations along with many other self proclaimed fashionistas. The luxurious brand Jimmy Choo, now affordable, features men’s and women’s clothes, shoes, bags, and accessories. The collection is eclectic and everything you would expect from Choo, using elements from the brand’s essential style. H&M has given us Jimmy Choo on a fancy swarovski crystal platter, eat up my dears! Collection hits stores November fourteenth.

This is super news!

Here is the press release from H&M, obviouslly they are very excited about this too:

JIMMY CHOO BRINGS GLAMOUR TO H&M THIS AUTUMN

This autumn, British accessory brand Jimmy Choo will bring its international glamour and covetable shoes and bags to selected H&M stores. The collection will be available from November 14 in around 200 stores across the world. It is the first time that H&M is collaborating with an accessories brand, and to celebrate Jimmy Choo will extend its design vision for this collection to women’s clothing to complement the accessories. Further exciting news is that this collaboration includes a men’s collection of shoes, bags and accessories.

“We are privileged to be among the fashion greats who have been affiliated with H&M so far, and to be designing a collection appealing to fashion savvy, street smart women, and to be including some great pieces for men, too. Jimmy Choo will bring to H&M a sophisticated, fashion forward, accessible and glamorous collection – the perfect party pieces to buy now and then wear out that night!” Tamara Mellon, Founder and President, Jimmy Choo.

“We adore Jimmy Choo’s shoes and bags. They are glamorous and sexy, and they add instant style to the simplest of outfits. I like the way we have worked with clothes to accessorize the shoes and bags rather than the other way around. This collaboration is particularly exciting because it’s our first shoe designer collection. It’s a joy to be able to offer top end designer shoes and bags of excellent quality to our customers.” Margareta van den Bosch, creative advisor, H&M.

Since its launch in 1996, Jimmy Choo has been such a phenomenal success that the brand name has become part of popular culture – say the words “Jimmy Choo”, and you know you mean shoes. In Hollywood, Jimmy Choo shoes have become a red-carpet essential, and have been worn at the Oscars by winners such as Cate Blanchett, Halle Berry and Hilary Swank among many other actresses. The famous Jimmy Choo shoes will be at the heart of the exclusive collection for H&M, but there’s more. Jimmy Choo has also become well known for its bags, and for H&M there will be a whole range of accessories to complete the look.

H&M does not have an outlet at Woodbury Commons but if you want to check out who does, go to the list of stores at Woodbury Commons.

Yay for H&M and Jimmy Choo!
