Brand History Christian Louboutin
Christian Louboutin is from Paris. From an early age, this man was attracted to women's shoes, which became almost a fetish for him. Realizing his vocation, Christian began to draw sketches in which the famous couturier Charles Jourdan became interested in the early 80s. He also became the first mentor of the future legend, teaching him everything he knew.
At 27, Christian opened his own store, where he sold his famous shoes. She brought fashion designer world fame and glory, and women of fashion all over the world consider it an honor to have a pair of such shoes in her wardrobe.
The main feature of his shoes is the red sole of Louboutin who invented it when he looked at the color of the nail polish. Since then, that is, since 1994, all the soles of branded shoes began to turn red.
The master himself says the secret of the popularity of his shoes, not only in the originality of the color of the sole, but also in giving a woman the opportunity to be beautiful and elegant, whatever her clothes.
