Brand story: Founded in London in 1996 by couture shoemaker Jimmy Choo and former British Vogue accessories editor Tamara Mellon. Choo had made shoes by hand in an East End workshop, and Princess Diana was a favourite client. The name became a byword for luxury shoes when Carrie Bradshaw cried "I lost my Choo!" on Sex and the City. This is the Demi, the label's slip-on sneaker, from a past season in black velvet with leather trim, elastic gussets, a tan leather lining stamped in gold, a gold JIMMY CHOO stud at the heel and a white rubber cup sole.
Year: Contemporary. Size: 40. Fabric: Velvet upper; leather lining. Original price: $788.
