MEGA-STAR JENNIFER LOPEZ IS PAIRING WITH GIUSEPPE ZANOTTI ONCE AGAIN TO CODESIGN A FIERCE FOOTWEAR COLLECTION.

Mega-star Jennifer Lopez is pairing with Giuseppe Zanotti once again to codesign a fierce footwear collection.

What would it be like to walk in Jennifer Lopez’s shoes? Figurative­ly speaking, of course—no one can match the multitalen­ted singer, dancer, actress, and fashion designer. But you literally can walk in the budding shoe designer’s footwear this season.

The Giuseppe for Jennifer Lopez haute celebrity collection makes

the perfect transition from summer to fall in the Magic City.

Booties, stiletto sandals, and over-the-knee boots—all named for Lopez’s favorite roles in television and film (last season she used the names of family members)—comprise the sexy lineup. Each shoe also features crystals, the fil rouge, or common thread, of the collection. Much like the duo’s first go-around, the second collaborat­ion embodies both of their aesthetics, spotlighti­ng designer Giuseppe Zanotti’s expert craftsmans­hip and Lopez’s undeniable red-carpet glamour.

Take, for example, the Gertie bootie, named for Lopez’s role in Jersey Girl. Covered in Swarovski crystals, these showstoppe­rs come in eye-catching maroon and everyday black. Echoing the actress’s role in Maid in Manhattan, the Marisa over-the-knee boot works for those who want to lace up their look with a sparkle of dangling crystals. There’s also the Harlee, a feminine stiletto sandal that’s a welcome addition to any daring fall wardrobe, straight out of TV’S Shades of Blue. You’ll be the talk of the town as the fall social season kicks off. $1,495–$2,795. Bal Harbour Shops, 9700 Collins Ave., 305-868-0133; giuseppeza­nottidesig­n.com

THE COLLABORAT­ION EMBODIES GIUSEPPE ZANOTTI’S EXPERT CRAFTSMANS­HIP AND LOPEZ’S UNDENIABLE RED-CARPET GLAMOUR.
