House of Fraser introduces Kenneth Cole New York Women's Footwear collection

Thu, 11 Mar 2010 16:49:06 GMT

House of Fraser in-store and online has launched the new women's footwear range from Kenneth Cole New York, in addition to the menswear and womenswear lines. The full Kenneth Cole New York assortment now available at House of Fraser includes women's footwear, handbags, and jewellery and men's tailored clothing, outerwear, bags, luggage, small leather goods, belts and jewellery,

The Kenneth Cole New York shoe collection boasts an exclusive patented cushioning system, called 925 Technology, which offers comfort and style for women who love fashion.

Kenneth Cole New York has introduced 925 Technology into the entire women's footwear collection - from pointy toe flats and motorcycle boots to strappy stilettos and evening heeled styles.

Women will no longer need two different pairs of shoes to address the need for comfortable 'wear to work' styles and 'wear in the office' heels. Kenneth Cole shoes can be worn from day to evening without having to worry about soles of the feet getting sore. It's truly the movement to support movement and, in turn, the effort to save the soles of shoe lovers across the world.

Each 925 Technology foot bed has two layers of PORON(R) foam: one is a shock absorber; the other is memory foam that moulds to the shape of the foot, becoming even more comfortable with each step. A unique flaxseed pillow is embedded in the arch cradles of the shoes, which supports the foot, while a soft rubber sole enhances flexibility. The shoes are finely constructed with supple sheepskin lining that allows feet to breathe a welcome sigh of relief. In addition to this, all high heel styles have an impact resistant nylon heel lift - ideal for running through the streets or rushing from meeting to meeting.

This feel-good technology will revolutionise the fashion shoe industry by providing the most comfortable shoes for fashion conscious women.

House of Fraser is exclusively introducing Kenneth Cole New York for Autumn/Winter 09 as it makes its UK debut. Established stateside as a fashion power house that has redefined Manhattan style, the exciting new womenswear lifestyle collection offers modern tailoring, smart outerwear and refined casual wear.

Since its launch in 1983, Kenneth Cole has stuck firm to its belief in providing innovative urban fashion. The label encapsulates city living with a keen focus on contemporary style. Set against a dark colour palette of black and grey, slick suiting anchors the range with architectural shapes, technical fabrics and clean silhouettes that give the range a real point of difference.

Heralding a new style of urban dress, the humble work shirt is updated in white poplin and re-designed with an elegant frill-fronted trim. Versatile Kenneth Cole dresses in shades of cherry red or black are worn with cropped leather jackets with a military twist; taking the look from day to evening. Animal printed chiffons provide a nod to 80s power dressing reflecting one of the season's hottest trends.

Attention to detail is a strong focus with a range of casual separates for relaxed dressing that balance the dual work to weekend wardrobe. The range of knitwear in fine gauge merino wools with button and pleated trims add a cosy yet sophisticated element to the collection. These separates work well with the chic range of Kenneth Cole handbags and purses, available in utilitarian tones, including black, tan or grey as well as deep jewel shades of amethyst or emerald green. The range offers unrivalled levels of choice and style with new deliveries every month.

With an established celebrity following including the likes of Sharon Stone, Cindy Crawford, America Ferrara (Ugly Betty) and Blake Lively (Gossip Girl), Kenneth Cole New York is both versatile and stylish.
