NEW YORK, Feb. 12, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Sexy, strappy,
sleek, minimal - the NUDIST sandal is as close to bare as a
fashionable foot can get. Coveted by Hollywood's chicest starlets, this new
Stuart Weitzman collection
silhouette has garnered a cult-like following so quickly and
dramatically that the designer has created an interactive
customization tool that will launch on Wednesday, February 12th, exclusively
on www.stuartweitzman.com.

The "SW x You" limited-edition customization program celebrates
personal style by giving shoppers the unique opportunity to
design their own NUDIST sandal in a variety of 12 materials and
colors. From camouflage linen to floral python to foil nappa to
sugar lace, and with a vast palette of bold spring brights, shiny
metallics and soft neutrals, there is a combination to satisfy
every stylish shoe lover. And if the NUDIST's 4 ½-inch heel is too
towering, a 3-inch heel version (the NAKED) is available
within the customization program. Retail prices range from
$385 - $625, with an approximate
delivery period of 6-8 weeks.
The NUDIST has become a red carpet favorite of Hollywood's fashion elite including
Diane Kruger, Jennifer Lawrence and Olivia Wilde, and has swept this season's awards
shows, having made appearances at the Golden Globes and the
People's Choice Awards. But, the simplicity and elegance of this
silhouette makes it equally appropriate off the red carpet, as
exemplified by Naya Rivera and
Lauren Conrad who have been spotted
wearing the NUDIST in their everyday lives. And now, every woman
will have the opportunity to create a custom version that can
easily transition from day to night with fashionable ease.
