Nicholas Kirkwood‘s fanciful footwear designs have afforded him numerous designer collaborations (including Nicholas Kirkwood for Rodarte; Nicholas Kirkwood for Erdem and with Peter Pilotto) but our favorite of his partnerships is the one with the Keith Haring Foundation. You may recall that Kirkwood debuted his Nicholas Kirkwood x Keith Haring 12-piece shoe collection back in September. Of his latest collaboration he said:
“I actually studied fine art at Central Saint Martins and the combination of fashion and art is very interesting for me. I never claim to be an artist. I’m a designer. But I think there are areas in which they can merge, and that overlap is exciting.”
The collection includes wedges, platform booties, heels and even roller skates!
