Geox and Patrick Cox combine to make Elton John shoes
03/10/2011
A series of classic-shape English brogues in leather, but with striking metallic finishes, will feature in a new show that the singer has launched in Las Vegas called The Million Dollar Piano.
Patrick Cox commented: “I’ve designed hundreds of pairs of shoes for Elton John over the last 20 years, but this is the first time I’ve designed a shoe for him to wear on tour.” He added that the extravagant metallic finishes had been designed with Elton John (renowned for outlandish outfits) in mind.
The shoes come in gold, silver and bronze, as well as metallic tones of green, red, pink, blue, orange and lavender.
Geox founder, Mario Moretti Polegato, said: “I’m delighted to be able to work with a great artist like Elton, whom I've always loved. It’s also great to see fashion and innovation together on stage in front of a global audience.”
