Parker continued her tradition of naming shoes in the SJP Collection after
women and men who inspire her. Highlights from her fall collection include:
The Blythe Pump, – “Named for the great Blythe Danner, this beautiful
shoe exudes a sort of sophistication. A metropolitan personality. I’m thrilled
with the inky blue and the shoe’s proud silhouette.”
The Pat Boot, – “This is my sexy boot. Try getting it off me! I’ll find a
reason to wear it as often as possible. Named for Pat Field, who has been
an enormous influence on me and millions of others. Without her contributions, Carrie Bradshaw would have been incomplete.”
The Serge bootie, – “Named for Serge Normant, [the hair stylist] with
whom I’ve worked for 14 years. This style joins the first collection
of SJP Collection booties. I love the suede/color combination and
how it sits on the leg. And I think it’s very modern.”
The Rachel pump, – “Named for my sister. I think this is an
exquisite shoe. A great version of a slingback that is wickedly
sexy but still ladylike.”
“We’re honored that Sarah Jessica chose to work with
Nordstrom to launch the SJP Collection. It has been a
true collaboration and a pleasure working together. Sarah
Jessica’s aesthetic and style is so inspiring to so many
women, and this collection reflects her unique point of
view. We can’t wait for customers to see the line. There’s
something for every shoe lover and we think they’re going to respond really well,” said Scott Meden, Nordstrom
EVP and GMM of Shoes.
