Jimmy Choos

 These Jimmy Choo's provide a fantastic example of how shoes can be renovated. They were in fact brand new, however as they had been in storage & mainly due to the fact they are patent, they picked up some colour damage... as you can see upon the burgandy patent leather. Under no circumstances do I strass direct to patent leather as its non-porous surface means crystals do not adhere well, meaning crystal loss is highly likely. For this reason the colour damage wasnt an issue as the shoes required painting for strass regardless.

After several layers of black paint, lots of hours labour & thousands of crystals later..... You can see the end result is divine & a total transformation of the initial product.
