Firmly ensconced in the worlds of art and design, Madonna’s artist brother Christopher Ciccone will now foray into footwear design, and the namesake collection will make its debut at September’s London Fashion week.
Ciccone is probably best known for his creative directing with his collaborations with his famous sister, as he served as Creative Director on numerous tours – including Blond Ambition and the Girlie Show as well as multiple music videos.
As an author and biographer, Ciccone wrote “Life With My Sister Madonna,” which remained on top of the New York Times Bestseller list for months.
His newest venture, he says, is merely a creative extension of his work.
“It’s not so different from designing a home, a stage or a piece of furniture,” he says. “People have to be able to live in them.” And live in them they will as shoes are just the opening salvo; Ciccone will expand the line into a global lifestyle brand with its first flagship store opening in early winter.
