EXCLUSIVE: Stuart Weitzman and Sergio Hudson to Unveil First Runway Collaboration at New York Fashion Week
Stuart Weitzman and Sergio Hudson are teaming up for their first runway collaboration. On Friday, during New York Fashion Week, a capsule collection featuring Hudson’s take on the shoe brand’s stiletto boots, booties, pumps and more, will debut on the catwalk at the designer’s fall ’25 show.
While this marks Stuart Weitzman and Sergio Hudson’s first runway collaboration, the brands have previously worked together to create custom looks for Keke Palmer and La La Anthony at the 2023 Met Gala. Most recently, Hudson joined Stuart Weitzman’s dinner celebrating ambassador Issa Rae and the brand’s “How Lovely to Be a Woman” campaign in New York last fall where the idea for the taking the partnership to the runway occurred.
“From the beginning, I was eager to collaborate with Stuart Weitzman, as they represent a legendary brand I’ve long admired,” said Hudson. “I grew up watching my mother wear their shoes, and they’ve always stood out for their commitment to craftsmanship and quality. I’ve enjoyed working with them to create looks for some of the most incredible women in the world — it was only a matter of time that we took this synergy to the runway.”

The capsule collection includes re-imagined versions of the Stuart Power Bootie and Boot made in a range of colorways including black stretch leather, cabernet, custom-dyed green, platino stretch leather, washed vintage denim, plum and blue stretch suede. Fans of the brand will also notice the Nudist II sandal on the runway and the Stuart Weitzman Power pump, both sitting on a 100mm heel height.
Paula Sola, head of design at Stuart Weitzman, said this was the natural step in their ongoing collaboration. “I love that Sergio chose to reinterpret our most iconic styles — sleek and sophisticated pumps and boots — perfectly highlighting how seamlessly our design philosophies align while speaking directly to the women we design for,” she added.
The men featured on the runway will also be dressed in pieces from Stuart Weitzman’s men’s collection, including a sleek Oxford silhouette with a concealed lace construction, and the a modern Chelsea boot with a rounded square toe.
