Madonna's artist brother is branching out into fashion by launching his own shoe line.
Christopher Ciccone has taken inspiration from Hollywood icons and Italian movie stars for the footwear range, designed in conjunction with Czechoslovakian shoe company Novesta.
Interior designer Ciccone says, "It's not so different from designing a home, a stage or a piece of furniture. People have to be able to live in them."
He will launch The Ciccone Collection with displays in cities including London, New York, Los Angeles, and Paris, France and plans to open a flagship store later this year (12).
