“It is such an honor to work with an iconic brand like UGG,” says Rachel Zoe. “I so enjoyed styling their lookbook for the launch of the Classic Slim Collection. My intention was to achieve that effortless cool girl style, something that just feels so inherent to the brand.”
With the help of fashion photographer Justin Coit, Zoe created a one-of-a-kind lookbook featuring five styles from the Classic Slim™ Collection. Guaranteed to inspire new street worthy styling of the UGG® boot, the lookbook was shot on location throughout Los Angeles. Zoe’s lookbook, including a behind-the-scene video series, will be on display at UGG® brand stores and available online at http://www.uggaustralia.com giving consumers access to her how-to style guide worldwide.
On set, Zoe coined the term “back-tie” as an alternative way to style the Bethany saying, “I mixed it up a little bit. I messed up the laces and pulled the tongue out so you see the pop of shearling. Then I tied it behind the heel so it’s more like a back-tie for a super edgy look.”
Following the launch of the brand’s Classic Luxe™ Collection this August, the Classic Slim™ is the next iteration of the brand’s iconic UGG® Classic boot. The Classic Slim™ Collection is available in two heel heights and four shaft heights including: the 12.5-inch tall Kara, the 9-inch short Amie, the 9-inch short Michelle, the 5.5-inch mini Kristin, the 5.5-inch mini Cory and the 3.75-inch lace-up Bethany. Each new style builds on the trusted warmth and comfort of the original with its luxurious suede and Twinface sheepskin construction that is pre-treated to provide protection and water repellency.
“Being comfortable doesn’t have to be casual. No one knows that better than Rachel Zoe, the world’s leading authority in fashion. We are thrilled to have this chance to work with her to celebrate this point,” says UGG® Vice President Creative Director Leah Larson. “With our new Classic Slim and help from Rachel, our UGG customers have a little reminder that feeling good and feeling good about yourself will never go out of fashion.”
The Classic Slim™ Collection from UGG® is currently available at www.uggaustralia.com, all UGG® brand storesand select retail partners worldwide.
