Kurt Geiger is a British footwear and accessories brand that pairs aspiration and accessibility. Creative Director Rebecca Farrar-Hockley and her team of specialist shoe and accessory designers make up the creative vision of the brand at the Kurt Geiger headquarters on Britton Street, London. An authority on designer footwear and accessories for women, men and children, today Kurt Geiger has over 80 stores, a digital global flagship kurtgeiger.com and over 240 concessions within the world’s most prestigious department stores including Harrods and Selfridges. In 1995 Kurt Geiger introduced a men’s collection designed in London with distinctly British edge worn by actors from Benedict Cumberbatch to Daniel Radcliffe, Channing Tatum and John Boyega.

In 2011 Kurt Geiger founded Everything but the Dress and introduced accessories and a bag collection. Kurt Geiger is worn by actresses, artists and models including Kendall Jenner, Jennifer Lawrence, Cate Blanchett, Emily Blunt, Beyonce, Sienna Miller, Rihanna, Cindy Crawford and Gigi Hadid. The company is named after its Austrian founder,[4] who opened its first shop in London's fashion capital on Bond Street in 1963 and it has been rooted in London ever since.[4][5][6]
