Christian Louboutin

Christian Louboutin, the luxury french shoe and bag designer now in Beirut Souks.

Christian Louboutin helped bring stilettos back into fashion in the 1990s and 2000s, designing dozens of styles with heel heights of 120mm (4.72 inches) and higher. The designer’s professed goal is to “make a woman look sexy, beautiful, to make her legs look as long as [he] can.” While he does offer some lower-heeled styles, Louboutin is generally associated with his dressier evening wear designs incorporating bejeweled straps, bows, feathers, patent leather and other, similar decorative touches.
