Louboutin
S H O E D ES I G N ER
Early Life
• Christian Louboutin was born in France 1963.
• He had little interest in school growing up.
• Christian Louboutin’s father was a cabinetmaker whilst his mother was always at home.
• In his early teens, he had a dream to make footwear and designed types of shoes. He was expelled from
schools at 16. And started working for a famed shoe designer called Charles Jourdan.
• Louboutin happened on his life's passion by accident. All it took was a trip to a museum. He saw a sign
showing that high heel shoes were not permitted there. "I was totally fascinated by that sign. I'd never seen
shoes like that," he explained to W. Before long Louboutin was filling notebooks with his own shoe
sketches. He was further inspired by a book of Roger Vivier's designs given to him by a friend. Vivier
designed shoes for Christian Dior in the 1950s.
• In the early 1990’s he launched his own fashion line. In 1993 he added his famous red sole.

Christian Louboutin’s work
Christian Louboutin’s ‘red sole’ high heels are one of his
most famous pieces of work. He got the idea of red from his
assistant in his shop painting her nails red.

I think these high heels are very unique and different to


plain, normal shoes. This attracts more buyers and increases
variety.

Christian Louboutin’s ‘Spike Sock Black 30


Neoprene’men's shoe are one of his recent
works. They are very futuristic and are
different as they have bold, striking colours
and have spikes around it.
Christian Louboutin’s work
These Christian Louboutin women ‘white leather hi tops’
are also one of his recent works.
They have lots of different colour variety and have a big
signature on the side of the shoe.
This is good as they are more casual and comfortable than
high heels and can appeal to a wider range of people.

Christian Louboutin’s ‘Red Bottom’ Men’s shoes are


very unique. They have a very modern and futuristic
look and have a gradient from black to red.
Why Christian Louboutin Should
Be The Most Famous Designer
1. Christian Louboutin started at the bottom and came to the top. He was expelled from school yet he
followed his passion and became what he wanted to.
2. He appeals to all people and has a variety of different types of shoe.
3. All of his shoes are quality and are made with exceptional craftsmanship and high quality materials
which makes the shoe last a long time.
