Billy Porter and Jimmy Choo Team Up For a Pride-Themed Capsule Collection

It’s “Kinky Boots” come to life. In celebration of Pride Month, Billy Porter and Jimmy Choo just announced a capsule collection of boots, pumps, loafers and bags that represent the actor’s distinctive flair for fashion and drama — and well known love of shoes. Launching for pre-order today, the 13-piece collection features platform booties (similar to styles the actor has worn on the red carpet), suede pumps, metallic stacked heel boots and a series of animal-printed loafers and bags, all of which were curated by Porter. The collection is available in extended sizing, up to women’s EU 45 (US 15), and the brand will also debut an extended size range across a selection of signature women’s styles up to EU 45 (US 15), starting in July.   The Bryelle boot in gold, from the Jimmy Choo x Billy Porter capsule.
