You all know her as Carrie Bradshow from Sex and the City. The woman who can have a conversation with her Jimmy Choo shoes as if she were talking to her girlfriend. Now she is stepping out of her Christian Louboutins to let you walk in her own shoes – her shoe collection that is! “Sarah called me and said she’d been thinking a lot about shoes. Before she could finish that sentence, I said, ‘be in my office tomorrow morning.'” That’s how the shoe collection came to be, a one-minute conversation with George Malkenus, CEO of Manolo Blahnik USA. Sarah bought her first pair of Manolo shoes in 1985-86. She bought five or six pairs of them. If you are a fan of Sex and the City, you may remember how Manolo shoes Carrie-d her through all the good(s) and the bad(s) in the show.
Quick Facts
- The shoe line will debut at Nordstrom in February
- Each pair of shoes has a name. Each name is carefully chosen, from play she did (Silvia), to her best best friend’s name (Jill).
- The shoes are made by Italian artisans. Music to my ears
- Expect to pay between $200.00-$500.00 for a pair of shoes
- The line will also include handbags and one “perfect” Trench coat in different colors
- Whether her name is Pola, Etta, or Slim, each pair of shoes has one thing in common: The grosgrain ribbon running on the back seam, or a tiny ribbon tab on the side of the shoe. It’s her way of adding one of her childhood memories to her new line.
i just love the way Carrie Bradshaw loves and talks to her shoes.
i think her line of shoes will be a total success.
