"Yet both Ninomiya and Choo's creative director Sandra Choi are united by their love of craft and pushing ideas to an extreme - "creativity without borders or boundaries" according to Choi - hence a collaboration that winds up a crashing together of two entirely different universes, extremes brought together. Debuted as part of the noir kei ninomiya Spring/Summer 2026 catwalk show in Paris, the capsule includes neat little handbags, three unexpectedly fetishistic harnesses, and of course a selection of shoes."
"For these, precise and hyper-traditional menswear brogues and loafers in polished leather with boxy toes and welted soles are the uniting silhouette, albeit entirely contradicted with delicate Jimmy Choo 'Drop' heels, like frozen drizzles of liquid holding the whole shoe up. These are either presented stand-alone, as paradoxical spindles barely holding the weight or, in this stand-out instance, encased in a plexiglass outer heel like a preciously preserved specimen."
A collaboration between Jimmy Choo and noir kei ninomiya debuted as part of the noir kei ninomiya Spring/Summer 2026 catwalk in Paris. The capsule mixes neat handbags, three fetishistic harnesses and a selection of shoes that pair polished menswear brogues and loafers with boxy toes and welted soles alongside delicate Jimmy Choo 'Drop' heels resembling frozen drizzles of liquid. Some heels are presented as paradoxical spindles or encased in a plexiglass outer heel like preserved specimens, with the heel itself featuring a pavé of crystals artfully hidden underfoot. The collection is available at select retailers and curated Jimmy Choo and Dover Street Market boutiques.
