Jeffrey Campbell Launches at Pure London

[London], July 4, 2012 - Creating a buzz of excitement within fashion circles, celebrity favourite Jeffrey Campbell will be launching his latest footwear collection at Pure London this August.

Jeffrey Campbell's design ideas are inspired by everything from vintage shops to astronomy. The spring/summer collection sees 1960s romanticism mixed with the sharper edges of modernity, including hints of vinyl, crochet, spikes, metallic and wood. Jeffrey Campbell uncovers a world of glamorous fashion where retro mod meets ultra modernist. The brand has grown significantly in the last 10 years and is currently available in 49 countries. His designs have been seen on the likes of Jessica Alba, Rihanna, Sarah Harding and Jessie J.
