When you say the name Chloe Green several things spring to
mind – heiress to the Topshop fortune, occasional reality TV star (she starred
in Made in Chelsea as the girlfriend
of Ollie Locke) and most importantly, she’s besties with Kate Moss. However,
designer is not something you would normally associate with Miss Green – you
see she’s usually wearing the designer digs, not designing them. But Sir
Phillip Green’s most famous daughter has turned all al a Moss on us and has
designed a range of fancy footwear.
The shoe collection aptly name CJG (Chloe Jade Green) will
go on sale at 7am on Thursday 17th May at Topshop.com as well as
hitting the Oxford Circus flagship store in London, and will no doubt be a
success and sell out in seconds. The shoes each have a green sole, a nod to
celeb fave Christian Louboutin, who also wished Chloe luck!
But don’t count on Miss Moss making an appearance in the
sky-scrapers any time soon. According to Chloe, they’re just too high for her (really??? It’s Kate Moss for goodness
sake – she can walk on water if she wanted too!) In fact, judging by the
line-up at the VIP launch of CJG at Topshop HQ, the only celebs that will be
tottering around in Miss Green’s designs are her MIC pals.
But with a much more reasonable price tag than the old
Louboutin’s, I see many girls running and grabbing a pair as soon at 7am
strikes. In fact, with all my reservations I had about Miss Green’s talents as
a shoe designer – they are, dare I say it, really nice. No not nice, they’re
hot! And quite frankly if I could fathom the £100+ needed for a pair, I would
probably crumble under shoe goodness and buy a pair.
With eight styles going on sale including green glittery
platforms, peach studded heels and strappy crème and metallic heeled sandals –
all with the (soon-to-be famous) green sole, there is no shortage of choice on
offer. And FYI the green glittery platforms are to die for!
