Sofia Richie launches shoe line

Sofia Richie has launched a shoe line with Stuart Weitzman and become and ambassador for the brand.

The pregnant social media star appears in a new campaign for the collection – which features slingback pumps, woven sandals, strappy heels and espadrilles – and she’s insisted she was thrilled to take on the job especially as her first photoshoot for the company let her show off her baby bump.

She said: “I’m beyond excited to take this next step forward as the new SW brand ambassador, especially because my first shoot with them reflects such an important step in my life.

“I’ve been loving and wearing the brand for years as it’s known for its minimal sophistication. I’m thrilled to partner with this legacy brand.”

The collection is simply titled Sofia and many of the designs feature bows and pearls and colours including pink and white.

Sofia – who is expecting her first child with husband Elliot Grainge – recently admitted she’s not planning to change her wardrobe to include maternity wear while she’s pregnant.

She told America’s Vogue magazine: “I’m not really tapping into maternity wear at all, if anything, I’m just sizing up. I’m also not buying an entirely new wardrobe for this pregnancy. “I’ve bought a few pairs of pants [trousers] in bigger sizes, but I’m wearing my same jackets, and sweaters, and trenches – I’m about to have some fun with it now that I can spread my wings and fly.”

Sofia is expecting a baby girl and she revealed she’s already been busy thinking up some stylish outfits for her. She added: “From the moment I found out I was pregnant, I have been going crazy online. I have so many ideas – just cute and girly.” The model has also saved of designer pieces that she can eventually hand down to her little girl, explaining.

“I’ve held onto things, and thought, ‘Oh my daughter will have this one day. I have a lot of little bags to pass down. I have a lot in mind.”
