Jimmy Choo Holiday Contest: You, Your Shoes and 72

By  | 


Jimmy Choo and Elton John AIDS Foundation have launched a photo competition to support the launch of Project PEP, a charity collection that donates 25% of sales to the Simelela Rape Centre in South Africa . The money goes towards providing the HIV-preventative treatment PEP (which must be taken within 72 hours of exposure to HIV) and counselling to victims of rape in South Africa, which has the highest count of rape in the world. To help raise awareness Jimmy Choo is asking readers to enter a competition on a special website, and upload pictures of them in their favorite Jimmy Choos. The theme of the photo competition is You, Your Shoes and 72.


The offer is a Grand Prize of the ultimate Jimmy Choo VIP experience – the winner will be invited to spend a day of luxury and the Jimmy Choo HQ and choose 7 pairs of shoes and 2 handbags to keep. Plus over 100 exclusive Jimmy Choo prizes will also be awarded. How is that for a fabuless holiday present to yourself? 🙂 The overall winners will be announced after the competition closes on the 7th December, in just a few weeks’ time.

The contest is a nice follow-up to all the excitement generated by the Jimmy Choo for H&M Collection. May the best Recessionista win! There’s nothing like the combination of fashion and charity to warm a frugal fashionista’s heart!
