Ivank More: Ivanka Heads towards Footware

Ivanka Trump

Expect to see a whole lot more of the Trump name — and not just in real estate news.

Ivanka Trump, businesswoman and first daughter of developer Donald Trump, has already taken on more than her executive role in her father’s company, bowing a namesake, high-end jewelry collection and writing a best-selling book offering young women tips for getting ahead. Now she’s taking on shoes.

Teaming up with Marc Fisher Footwear, the 28-year-old is debuting a complete collection of moderately priced footwear for spring ’11, which includes a mix of stilettos, flip-flops, sneakers and ballet flats. The line, Trump said, showcases her affinity for sophisticated and elegant looks and weaves in contemporary and modern twists.

“There’s a great opportunity to position stylish, yet refined, shoes,” she said of the collection, which debuts at FFANY next week. “What you tend to see are totally unwearable, over-the-top styles, or [looks that are] comfortable to the point of forgoing any appealing aesthetic. I’m going for the middle.”

Though price points are still being worked out, Marc Fisher Footwear President Susan Itzkowitz said the 75-to-100-style line is tentatively priced between $80 and $140 and is being targeted to department stores in the U.S., Canada and Mexico in its first season.

“There’s a real niche for a line like this,” said Itzkowitz. “Every part of the collection will be very reflective of Ivanka, [and] it gives us an opportunity to have a beautifully executed line for that classy, contemporary woman. It gives us a whole new dimension to our business.”

While Trump also has partnered with handbag licensee Mondani on a collection for spring ’11 and spun out her jewelry line to wholesale, the Wharton School of Business grad said she’s content — for now — to focus on these ventures.

“I don’t take these partnerships lightly. It’s about creating a sustainable, long-term business,” she said.

Marc Jacobs: Young and Pretentious

Tuesday, February 6th, 2007



And okay, maybe kind of very talented.

Up in Bennington, back in the 80s, our own Glamwire cheif executive Milon Henry Levine was a member of the band “The Parents” featuring midwestern tv star Rich Cronfeld, screenwriter Mathew Weiss, novelist Bret Easton Ellis, and Blue Man Group Star Chris Bowen. One of our most notable numbers was called “I Used To Love You, but Now You’re Young and Pretentious. ” This is how we at The Wire feel about Marc Jacob’s Fall ‘07 collection. Marc Jacobs played host to a real panicky, football stadium like scene out there at the armory last night…and the show just seemed to kick forth a totally pretentious vibe. Now maybe that was just because Glamwire staff fotog Cal Rhodes was kicked out of the Italian Vogue area right at the end of the runway (and those alarming Israeli Women from Hatzerim Magazine managed to hold their positions–a note on tenaciousness for sure), but the whole thing looked like some sketches tossed off by a staffer at WWD in 1927. Still, the images do not lie, they do not get uncomfortable waiting for the show, staring nervously at two Israeli women blinking defiantly at end of the runway) there is some heavy duty righteous obvious gift woven into that pretentiousness. Lenny Kravitz, Uma Thurman, Russell Simmons, Patrick McMullen and a slew of other Top Tier New Yorkers also were asked to leave the Italian Vogue area.

Oscar!

Monday, February 5th, 2007

If you love Oscar as much as we do, don’t get to his show 30 seconds before it starts. I was seated in Guam. Also, if we can figure out a way to get this friggin’ music off of this friggin site, we will, in honor of Oscar. Oscar brought out a lot of fur collars and a coyote vest that set the crowd ablaze. This is considered new terriain for Oscar. At 76, always a stunner. Unfortunately the media riser this season reflected that. I was like, on some guy’s shoulders. Anyway, Till we meet again Oscar. Ciao. To shop, click here.
