The store is planned to open on 22nd April 2010 at Covent Garden and will be graced by a fantastic opening party with Britain’s who’s who.

As with the stores in New York and Miami, Gucci will introduce new Gucci Ronson shoes specific to the London store only. This time around, there will two new designs available in London as seen in the pictures below. Two very different materials are being used as one is a tweed fabric ankle top sneakers and the other a patented black and white polka dots in dual tones.

As quoted from Frida Gianni, the collaboration with Mark Ronson seems natural as he has a great eye for design and an amazing knowledge of sneaker history. All the other customised services will also be available and each shoes purchase will come with a limited edition bag and a 12-inch vinyl of Mark Ronson’s music. If you are visiting London during this period, be sure to make a stop at Earlham Street, Covent Garden or ask your Londoner mates to get a pair for you.
