When it was announced that Nicole Kidman was to be the new face of Jimmy Choo, the first thought that crossed my mind was, 'Woop! She can wear heels again!'. Of course this was in relation to the fact that the whole time she was married to Tom Cruise, she never wore heels that towered her crazy ex-hubby. Then I thought, hang on a second- what will the ads look like? The last couple of years have seen Victoria's Secret-esque ads from Jimmy Choo, and although I am fully aware that Nic is capable of sexy- anything close to fetish isn't a good colour on her (remember that GQ 2009 cover? Eeek.)
Thankfully, the ads are anything but. Thanks to the Huffington Post, I finally got a glimpse of Mrs. Urban in her Choos and I must say, I am pleasantly surprised. Sporting an angular copper bob, Nicole is seen looking rather vampy in her stilettos. The shoes from the collection range from sandals to classic courts and knee-high boots and purses of course, but all eyes are definitely on that sultry gaze. The setting is all very clandestine looking- like she's about to meet someone for a quick kinky romp in the woods (there's your sexy then!). I will say however that I agree with HP in saying that the photos come off too fashion editorial with the clothes looking center stage sometimes. What do you think? Are you buying Nicole's Choos?
I like it! She's serving sexy and chic, and definitely an upmarket sensibility. As much as I loved Candace's S&M, Choo needed to polish up again, and they have!
