The new collaboration between Noir Kei Ninomiya and Jimmy Choo for Spring Summer 2026 brings together two distinct design languages. Ninomiya’s lattice constructions meet Jimmy Choo’s reflective chrome, creating accessories that glint with star-shaped studs and engineered symmetry. Captured exclusively by DSCENE Magazine during the resee presentation of the collection, details come into view.
The collection redefines classic footwear through material experiment and balance. Black patent leather forms the base of shoes with sharp masculine profiles, while transparent heels and crystal detailing introduce an unexpected lightness. Each surface feels precise, with polished lace-ups covered in rhinestones that fade into clear cut-out heels.
Another design plays with proportion, pairing a thick rubber sole with a delicate stiletto insert. The result challenges conventional silhouettes, turning utility into an element of desire.
The dialogue continues through accessories. A black leather bucket bag covered in silver star studs connects with matching shoes, translating the same rhythm of precision and excess. The motif repeats in a harness structure built from interlaced leather straps, also studded with stars and crystals.
The Noir Kei Ninomiya x Jimmy Choo collection introduced loafers and brothel creepers detailed with star-shaped chrome studs. The footwear reflected the collaboration’s geometric rhythm while grounding it with structure and weight.
Each look reveals how Ninomiya manipulates form to create tension, while Jimmy Choo’s craftsmanship adds a surface vocabulary of shine and reflection. The two design houses build a narrative rooted in duality, where movement and restraint exist in constant dialogue. Material becomes a language of its own. Patent, mesh, and chrome interact as if sculpted mid-motion, shifting under light and proximity.

The pieces shifted between masculine precision and feminine lift, expressing control through construction rather than decoration. In doing so, the collaboration positions itself as one of the season’s most visually articulate exchanges between two designers who share an instinct for structure, balance, and intent.
