Jimmy Choo to launch fragrance

Rumors of a Jimmy Choo fragrance have been circulating within the fashion world for some time, and Tamara Mellon has made no secret of the fact that she sees a perfume as an ‘integral part of the modern wardrobe’. The shoe tycoon – who founded the exclusive footwear company in 1996 with Jimmy Choo – is to launch the perfume next year after having signed a 12-year contract with Inter Parfums, the company responsible for the scents of fashion houses Burberry, Lanvin and Paul Smith. She said: ‘It has always been my vision to fully accessorize the woman, and fragrance is an integral part of the modern wardrobe. I look forward to bringing this important aspect of my vision to life.’ Elsewhere in the Jimmy Choo empire, the British businesswoman – who currently owns a fifth of the firm – recently dismissed reports she was planning to sell the company, which is believed to be worth $800 million. Tamara explained: ‘I’m not going anywhere. There is too much future growth in the business for me to leave now. We’re looking at all the different options available to us and it’s hard to know which is preferable until we’ve really examined them all.’

    I’ve read your disparagingly negative comments about Asian men, and quite frankly, I’m disgusted.

    I just want to let you know that they will no longer be uncontested. Will not just sit around while you or anyone else typecasts and pigeon holes Asian American men into stereotypes, especially by other Asians who just happen to be of the oppoite sex.

    I find this OFFENSIVE. I find this SHAMEFUL. I find this DISGRACEFUL.

    Sun Fan, I know that you’re very vocal in defending your racist viewpoints. But I too am extremely vocal in fighting racial stereotyping, descrimination, and prejudice.

    I’m not afraid to fight the good fight. So Sun Fan…bring it on girl. I look forward to your response.

    Like I said, I’m very happily married. Oh, that’s another stereotype about Asian men that has some truth to it: we tend to me more faithful. In this case, it’s true.

    My pic? Why would you need to see my pic? Are you getting that aroused already?

    Well, it looks like I’ve already beaten you. You have no comeback to my arguments except for wanting so see how I look like. Sorry little girl, you can’t have me.

    To all readers, this article was written by someone who have no idea what she was talking about. Someone with identity crisis. Someone who claimed she knew her so-called ‘asian plus caucasian’ culture. hahahahhaha….. You will be lucky to read this..because apparently someone is deleting comments they ‘dont like’. šŸ˜› To make this article worst was Sun Fan, (God knows where she came from or what her origin is)the girl who was making all these childish remarks. Living in a city where most of my colleagues are Caucasian and some of my buddies are what those brainless girls above called ‘white man’, i have always respect their culture. Although there is some occasional b@#t@$% and a#$h^&*. Honestly, i was reading between lines as some of the remarks were too difficult for me to read on. You girls are a disgrace to the Asian-American. Bleach yourself if you want to. Otherwise dont pretend that you know the Asian culture just because you know how to hold a chopstick properly or because you know how to take off your shoes before going into our house. And for God sake, stop calling yourself Asian. I feel really bad for your parents though šŸ™ Grow up. And what is with the ‘spiky hair’ thingy? My Caucasian friends have beard..i respect that..and i dont talk about their beard. Ok šŸ™‚ the bottom line is – the problem comes from you girls – not the Asian or Caucasian man. You girls have no idea who you are. Look at the mirror..and u will see a pathetic brown-skin girl who speaks like American, eat with knife and chopstick, think like a kid, and probably full of STD. Date whoever you want.Have sex with whoever you want. Further remark about Asian guy will just make you look more foolish. Ask yourself – how many Asian guy have you met in your life? Cheers
