Jimmy Choo... and UGG?
January 19th 2010 23:18
Now this is definitely one for the "wtf?" files - legendary shoe designer Jimmy Choo will be joining forces with none other than UGG Australia! It's probably the strangest collaboration since LiLo and Ungaro (and we all know how well that worked out) but Jimmy Choo's president Tamara Mellon believes that the Chugg designs will be nothing short of a rip-roaring success.
"Other than Jimmy Choo, UGG Australia is the only other footwear I have in my wardrobe," claims Mellon. "We are delighted to have created a special capsule that captures the best of both brands - the legendary comfort of UGG with the spirit of Jimmy Choo."
UGG Australia's president, Connie X. Rishwain, is equally excited about the upcoming collaboration. "We are thrilled to be able to offer the Jimmy Choo and UGG customers a unique collection of boots that we believe our customers will covet," she said.
Unique? I don't doubt it! The limited edition line will feature five styles in various colours, and will be unveiled in October this year. You'll be able to buy them soon after in selected department stores, and on the Jimmy Choo and UGG Australia websites.
Okay, so they won't be called 'Chugg'. I made that up.

I don't know whether to be relieved he's hopefully having the boots made in Australia and not China
(Does anyone know???)
or worried he'll ruin comfy uggs adding heels?
