Technology versus tradition. Opulence versus austerity. Toughness versus tenderness. Flamboyance versus grit. For Autumn Winter 2018 the Jimmy Choo men’s collection walks the line to find a finely-tuned expression of modern masculinity with a collection entitled Urban Grace.
“For this collection I have considered the question every man asks himself when setting about to make an impression. How do you respect tradition without being ruled by it? How do you balance showmanship and self-restraint? This season we thought about masculine opulence from the 16th century to the 21st. On the way we have focused on expanding the breadth of our formal offer as well as refining our sneaker and boot categories. In doing so we’ve found new answers to many of those questions – at least from the ankle down.” Sandra Choi, Creative Director
Key decorative stories include; inset pearl and matte black beads, removable pearl-flecked black tassels, pheasant feather trimming, gleaming metallic-finish Lace hooks, embroidered feather motifs in gold or black, on black velvet, and metal art-deco etched toe plates. Key styles for Autumn Winter 2018 include:
