Stuart Weitzman has been named the official designer of the delicate glass slipper that will be worn in the first-ever Broadway production of Rodgers + Hammerstein's "CINDERELLA," Feb. 11.
His one-of-a-kind creation will make its dazzling debut in the musical set for an official opening at the Broadway Theatre, New York City, March 3.
"What is every girl's first memory of shoes? Cinderella's glass slipper. Something as simple and accessible as a beautiful shoe can make a woman feel like a princess," says Weitzman. "Who wouldn't want to be Cinderella for a night? When asked to re-create the iconic slipper for the new Broadway production, I jumped at the chance."
The ace designer, who is also called the "King of Red Carpet," will also bring the fairytale to life for consumers with the launch of his "Clearly Timeless" capsule collection inspired by the lush, romantic musical.
Weitzman's "Clearly Timeless" capsule collection will include a glass-slipper-inspired pump, a peep-toe sling back and a strappy sandal. The heels as well as the upper part of the footwear will be encrusted with Swarovski crystals that add a seductive charm to the shoes.
The "Clearly Timeless Capsule Collection will be sold in Stuart Weitzman boutiques in New York City as well as online on the designer's official site.
