Nine West getting designer boost?

[stilettogirl84]

the thing with the low heel is that..these are for the masses..and most people wouldnt want to wear 5 inch high heel all day
the low heel is a safer route to go if they want more people to buy

yeah, but those shoes are ugly without a super high heel. I like low heels- I have quite a few.

but mine are like skinny kitten heels.

rounded toes and chunky heels like that look just mediocre without a really high heel

or flat might be ok, but as is I don't like them

vivienne westwood will be doing a meet and greet at the macys on 34th street in NYC on september 12 to promote the line.
she'll also be at other macys stores.

ohhhh dear godddd nooooo.......vivienne and NINE WEST! I am going to CRY! I just bought VW for my store thinking I would have something that would stand out....

 

[libby_bee]

Vivienne Westwood for Nine West

Pretty Interesting.

I love Vivienne Westwood, too bad i can't afford those shoes

 

[Ariez]

I saw the Gladiator ones in a magazine and fell in love. Vivienne's awesome. I'd definitely get them if I had the money

 

[Whitelinen]

Well, doing a deal with Nine West is at least much better than H & M. Not sure if I like the shoes though.

 

[shutterbug]

I had my eyes on the Romanns but I can't really afford any of them

 

[Jacque Marcel]

I thought the point was for it to be relatively affordable? That's a lot of money for nine west.

 

[lucy92]

Merge, please

 

[wheneveriwakeup]

^ I agree. It'd be smarter to add a couple more bucks and get something from her main line or anglomania.

This is also the case with Tara Subkoff's Easy Spirit collaboration. Cute shoes but insanely priced.

 

[kimair]

merged

Pretty Interesting.

Those are certainly Vivienne Westwood, and good for Nine West for landing her.

Outside the Vivienne Westwood collection, Nine West has some good looking boots from its fall collection

I've got video from the Vivienne Westwood for Nine West press conference on my site here.

No one is talking about the Coquette shoe here but I think it's fab and much more versitile than the boot...though I those too.

 

[stylegurrl]

I was so excited when I heard about Vivienne's collection for Nine West-then I saw the prices. Oh well, I know someone who won't be sporting those cool tartan boots this Fall

 

[serena775]

^ I actually just bought the boots last Sunday, i got them at Macy's and signed up for the Macy's card and took $100 off the boots, i was so happy. But they're still too expensive, i still have buyers remorse.

Thakoon Gets Up and Close and Personal With Nine West Appearances

Lauren David Peden
October 02nd, 2006 @ 1:03 PM - New York




In honor of his much-ballyhooed collaboration with Nine West, designer Thakoon Panichgul is scheduled to make two in-store appearances in San Francisco and New York City this week.

But unlike previous Nine West collaborator Vivienne Westwood, who popped in and out of Macy’s Herald Square flagship for a mere 20 minutes during the Fashion Week launch of her NW collection, Thakoon - as he is known professionally - promises to get up close and personal with fans via an intimate cocktail hour discussion of his work, inspiration and creative process, both in his ladylike-with-an-edge signature collection and in the limited-edition accessories line he designed for Nine West, during bi-coastal appearances at Macy’s Union Square in San Francisco and Macy’s Herald Square in New York, at 6 p.m. on Tuesday, October 3rd, and Thursday, October 5th, respectively.

“I wanted to approach this Nine West project in a way that does not dilute design,” Thakoon said via an e-mail on Monday, October 2nd of the subject he plans to discuss with fans at the Q&A session. “To offer quality product at a great price point to many more women; that's the great challenge in the design process.”

The challenge for Nine West, meanwhile, will be keeping Thakoon’s $75 lace pattern rain boots, $250 satin d’orsay pumps, $395 luxe leather tote bag, and $180 peek-a-boo lace gloves in stock.
