More Shoes to Market

chloe oxfords.jpgToday’s news in WWD was all about the shoes:

Not only do they report that Jeremy Scott’s designed a wacky sneaker mini-line for Adidas to arrive in stores by February (with a sneak peek during the Paris shows next week), but also that See by Chloe is officially branching into shoes, too.

The sure-to-include-wedges line debuts this Spring, and according to WWD, it’s “color-soaked” and includes a range of “jelly shoes” that we sincerely hope are on the shallow end of the $120 - $500 range.

Other designers announcing full-on shoe ranges to go with their clothes in recent days include Proenza, Hussein Chayalan, and Ohne Titel for Cesare Paciotti.

Are shoes the new way into the hearts of buyers with increasingly high standards for parting with their money?

Something tells us the Topshop dress / $800 shoe combo will be as popular as ever come Spring…
