Talk:Jimmy Choo Ltd
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Merging of Mr Jimmy Choo and Jimmy Choo Ltd
This is not a good idea, as suggested, the reason being that the company Jimmy Choo Ltd really does not have anything to do with the person Mr Jimmy Choo, (except for their shared names), and never really did. The company is the creation of Tamara Mellon and Sandra Choi, they just used Jimmy Choo's name. Although he was involved in the business at the start, he was bought out in 2001, and sold a licence by Jimmy Choo Ltd to continue producing his one off couture shoes bearing that name.
The company is not a creation of those two. Jimmy Choo began the corporation and Sandra Choi helped a lot. Jimmy Choo was the main creative mind behind the initial start of the company and still remains so today. It is similar to kate spade. I think that JImmy Choo's biography can be integrated as most of his accomplishments deal with the company.
