Jimmy Choo UGGs?


Jimmy Choo seems to be loving collaborations lately.

After creating a collection for H&M, the label is now launching a limited edition, five-piece collection with Ugg Australia.

Crazy, right?

The collection will launch in October, and will based on the construction of Ugg's sheepskin boots “with design details that embody the spirit of the Jimmy Choo brand,” the two companies said in a statement.

Prices will range from $595 to $705, and the collection will be available at select Jimmy Choo and Ugg Australia stores, and the two labels' online stores, as well as certain department and specialty stores that carry Jimmy Choo.

Tamara Mellon, president and founder of Jimmy Choo, said that alongside her own label, “Ugg Australia is the only other footwear I have in my wardrobe.”

Most of the fashion world looks down upon UGGs, but could this collaboration deem the infamous boots "fashionable?"
