vivienne westwood for nine west
August 4, 2006viktor and rolf for h & m. paul and joe for target. designers are spicing up moderately-priced retail stores for this fall. and it’s creating havoc. and now comes, britain’s fashion queen vivienne westwood for nine west.
this september, top nine west stores all over the country will be showcasing limited edition shoe designs from this bold brassy designer. with prices ranging from $ 160- 350, doubling prices of regular nine west shoe designs, expect to see lots of twists and unexpected creations apart from your typical nine west shoe. the collection will also be available on a limited time only feature on ninewest.com!

I can never find Westwood’s items in stores (in our city, at least), so I’ve only bought them online.

oh yea, those paul and joe necklaces look much better online. in person, they’re on the flimsy side..what do you expect for $14.99?? cute though. i’ve also noticed that paul and joe is more wearable than luella and jarmon. better styles and more choices. this line actually looks more “tarjhay couture” than the others. next stop: CHANEL for Target. hahaha I wish……….

$160-$350? whoa! westwood or no westwood, i’d NEVER spend $350 on a pair of NINE WEST SHOES!!! $50 more and you can get a pair of manolo LOL

do you think they got her coz she also has “west” in her name? haha! kidding! the collaboration sounds great. btw, rafe will also be doing an accessories line for target and it will be launched at the same time as behnaz serafpour’s in november.
charisse - karl lagerfeld did h&m and it bombed. they should have made quilt bags, i guess.

I love it- you get designer quality for high street prices! It’s perfect! Like a pet that feeds itself…

Loubotin’s espadrille wedges retailed for around USD$250, if you can get Loubotin for that, why would you want to spend that much for Nine West?

charisse, that’s what i heard since we don’t have and h&m where i live too. it sold fast but the quality was not good or as expected.

tara subkoff did well with her easy spirit line. vivienne westwood is a legend and with her legions of fans and devotees, i’m sure they won’t mind the cheaper* price tag (but would they mind the nine west label?)
