The Nicholas Kirkwood 'Wizard of Oz' collection will be highly coveted, especially because they are one-of-a-kind creations designed specifically to be displayed in Selfridges. Corresponding with the highly anticipated release of the prequel movie, 'Oz the Great and Powerful,' this coming weekend, the collection is comprised of four distinct designs. Each of them was inspired by a main character in the film: the Wizard, Glinda, Evanora and Theodora.
Part of Selfridge’s Shoe Carnival, the Nicholas Kirkwood 'Wizard of Oz' collection have ben paired with the costumes worn by James Franco, Michelle Williams, Mila Kunis and Rachel Weisz for an exciting window display. From crystal-encrusted heels to black-and-ruby-sequined boots and a men’s brogue, the collection perfectly captures the look and personality of each character represented. They also show that there’s no place like Selfridges.
