A blizzard couldn't hold back the throng swarming into Bowlmor Lanes on January 27th for the Miz Mooz shoe collection launch. With an invitation promising free booze and an opportunity to win free shoes for life, what's not to like?
According to their website, Miz Mooz started back in 2001 as a small private label. 10 years later they're pushing into Europe and Asia with playfully colorful handmade shoes with lasts made in Italy. They're main focus is FUN- yes, in capitol letters- and the shoe designs reflect it. Influenced by 70's styles (which were influenced by 30's and 40's styles), Miz Mooz makes shoes that cover every whim and mood.
There are suede peep toe wedges in jewel-like tones (the Natalie), rounded toe dual-color mary janes (the Iyla), and a classic pair of brown wooden soled sandals enlivened by a turquise band the wraps around the ankle (the Petra). There's a two toned slingback style called 'the Elizabeth', that will make any wearer smile as she floats down the sidewalk. These are shoes that can take a t-shirt and denim cutoffs from blah to blast.
The event at the Bowlmor was a chance for fashion insiders to get a look at the full connection, network, mongle, and bowl. Burlesque-style dancing girls shimmied just out of ball-range holding up signs reading 'got shoes?'. The company even gave attendees free shoes: a snazzy pair of spectator brogues in camel and cream.
Look for Miz Mooz shoes online at www.amazon.com and at Nordstrom's. If you can't wait until spring, visit www.infinityshoes.com for for pleated and rocker style boots to braving the snow more FUN.
