Rob Pruitt x Jimmy Choo

2012, another special work was created by Rob Pruitt and Jimmy Choo.
Rob Priutt is a contemporary pop artist, who is known for his use of bright and back and white colour. His most popular work is a seven foot tall crome-finished statue of Andy Warhol, which is situated on New Yorks Union square west.
The collaboration with Jimmy Choo resulted in a collection of shoes, bags, scarves and other accessoires, featuring graphical motifs, glitter zerba stripes, leopard print, lace and snakeskin.


These are two pictures of the advertising shoot. The backround looks like Pop Art already as the bright colours of the shoes and purses alomst look fake and copied into the photo. I like how the black and stripes make the colours stand out. The shoes themself have an ombre effect changing from pink into white and blue. 


Some pieces out of the collection: Loafers, flip flops, heels and accessiores like keyrings a purse and a scarve. The majority is decorated with the two cartoonish pandas. As contrast is an important part they look like an Angel and Devil.


The two bags are the highlight with only a limited number of 14 pieces worldwide and a price of £9600. 11,000 hand-apllied crystals are one each of the angels and devils.
