Jimmy Choo Marks 30 Years with Corset-Inspired Scarlett 95 Ankle Boot
Jimmy Choo has released the Scarlett 95 ankle boot as part of its 30th anniversary collection. The design features whipstitch leather ties knotted through a delicate lingerie lace body, creating a corset-inspired aesthetic. Sandra Choi, creative head of the label for 30 years, reinvents the traditional laced shoe by layering laces on top of laces. The combination of leather and lace is given a subversive, gothic edge, while the sharply pointed vamp and slender heel reference the 1990s, when the brand was founded. A surreal element appears in the Drop heel, which resembles a shoe balanced on a liquid drip, echoing Salvador Dalí's shoe obsession and his collaboration with Elsa Schiaparelli. The boot is available to buy now.
