Catalogue Note
Donated by Christian Louboutin Ltd.
With their iconic red soles, instantly signifying taste and prestige to anyone fortunate enough to follow in the footsteps of a stylish woman wearing a pear, Christian Louboutin's shoes are a natural fit in the (RED) Auction. The Parisian designer, who opened his first store in 1992, is at the height of his game: a recent retrospective at London's prestigious Design Museum attracted record crowds, and a glossy monograph from Rizzoli speaks to the artistry and theatricality inherent in his wildly inventive, ultra alluring heels.
