What to know about Jimmy Choo
Built for evening, not errands
The core is red-carpet footwear — crystal-embellished sandals, Romy and Love pumps, Bing mules — with bags, sneakers and bridal built out around that.
One designer since day one
Sandra Choi, a founding director and Jimmy Choo's niece by marriage, has run design since 1996, so the house look has not been reset by creative-director churn.
Couture roots, corporate present
Founded in 1996 by a Malaysian shoemaker and a former Vogue accessories editor, the label has been owned by Capri Holdings since 2017.
How Jimmy Choo fits
Overall fit
true to size
Jimmy Choo footwear is generally reported as true to size but cut on the narrow, refined side, with pointed styles feeling tight at the toe.
Tip: Order your measured size in most styles, but consider a half size up in pointed-toe pumps like the Romy for toe comfort.
