Ladies with a fetish for shoes will be as excited as we are to hear that Selfridges new shoe room will be bigger than the ground floor of the Tate Modern.

The retailer confirmed the news, which will have hundreds of us jumping around in shoe delight, this morning.

The fabulous footwear fashion space, which is the biggest project Selfridges has undertaken since 2003 will be open from September this year and will be designed by architect Jamie Forbert.

It will house exclusive designs from Givenchy, Chloe, Stella McCartney and Rodarte as well as giving shoppers six different salons and 10 brand boutiques.

Is it too early to start pitching our tents?
