DESIGN MUSEUM, LONDON
21st February 2012 We are looking forward to this restrospective on the master shoemaker at London’s Design Museum in May (changed from a March opening just this week). Louboutin opened his first store in Paris in 1992, so this retrospective, the first in the UK, marks the label’s 20th birthday. Louboutin is staggeringly creative and a peep at the website will give you immediate insight into his incredible world of footwear (and bags galore)…and you’ll literally be kicking your heels to get in to this showcase!
In its exhibition, the Design Museum promises to explain the man behind this world renowned shoe empire, as well as exploring the full design processes used to make a pair of Louboutin shoes. Visit the website (it’s no ordinary one) and get into fabulous shoes at www.christianlouboutin.com CN
