Jimmy Choo, the renowned luxury footwear and accessories brand, has recently made an exciting announcement regarding its leadership. After a successful interim period as the CEO, Hannah Colman has officially been named as the new Chief Executive Officer of the company. With an impressive 24-year tenure at Jimmy Choo, Colman’s journey began as a store manager at the brand’s flagship boutique on Motcomb Street in London. Her extensive experience and unwavering dedication have set her apart as a strong leader with a profound understanding of the brand’s heritage and values.
In her new role, Colman will report directly to Capri Holdings CEO John D. Idol.

Founder and creative director Sandra Choi has also endorsed Colman’s appointment, emphasizing her invaluable contributions to the brand’s evolution. Colman herself has enthusiastically embraced the opportunity to shape the future of Jimmy Choo and uphold its legacy of luxury and sophistication.
In tandem with the CEO announcement, Jimmy Choo has unveiled an exciting collaboration with Timberland, infusing the iconic boots with Swarovski crystal embellishments for a touch of glamour. This exclusive collection will debut in the US at Kith stores in New York and LA, before becoming available online and at select Jimmy Choo stores on September 9th. With Colman leading the way, Jimmy Choo is poised for continued growth and success as a standout British luxury brand on the global stage.
