Isn’t It Nice to Be Beyonce: See the Singer’s $5,500 Custom Sneaker Wedges

Mar 21, 2013 @ 2:35 pm

PMK Customs considers itself the “Maybach” of the couture sneaker world, which is why when Jay-Z and Beyonce wanted their kicks customized, they turned to founder Andre Scott. The brand crafted Jay’s red Nike-striped “Brooklyn Zoo” Jordans out of a hybrid of luxury reptile skins ($2,500), and Queen Bey liked them so much, she asked the designer to put a fresh twist on her Isabel Marant wedges, too. That’s how her creamy “King Bey” shoes came to be, an ostrich/crocodile/anaconda mix stitched together with gold thread ($5,500). “[The customization] mimics the southern belle’s sweet and fierce persona,” Scott told InStyle.com. “They are two very humble and inspirational people, and to have them part of our network is a true blessing.” Especially when the customers are so impressed by extreme attention to detail—Johnson said he had no edits to the specialized pieces.

Jun 1, 2012 @ 3:10 pm

Jennifer Nettles sang for one million viewers during last night’s Duets episode, and we caught up with the country star to get the details on her outfits for the ABC show. “I loved the chic versatility of my wardrobe in the second episode,” Nettles told InStyle.com exclusively. “My team’s song choices were varied, so I wanted to make sure we could achieve two, individual looks while being able to do so within the very limited, ‘quick change’ time we had between performances.” Nettles worked with stylist Gillian Steinhardt to create her two looks, which included pieces from The Row, Helmut Lang, and Isabel Marant.
