Christian Louboutin

The Louboutin stiletto evokes a collective imagination, tied to an elegant, bold, and dizzying décolleté with a flaming vermilion red sole.
Discovering that the story of these world-renowned shoes begins in Italy makes uncovering the past and the stroke of genius of Christian Louboutin even more fascinating. His inspiration comes from nightlife, the legs of ballerinas, and their mischievous jewel sandals, too original and extravagant to go unnoticed.
“I remember my assistant at the time used to put red nail polish on her nails; I looked at that color and thought of painting the soles red as a statement for that season,” Christian Louboutin declared in an interview.
Thus begins the story of a man who turned a décolleté into the symbol of the strong, independent, and sensual woman.
