OK, so I didn't actually go inside Christian Louboutin on 19 rue Jean-Jacques Rousseau 75001, I just stalked the outside like crazy. Maybe next time I'll get up the courage...
He opened his shop in 1992, right at the end of this 19th century arcade, Galerie Vero-Dodat.
I didn't know Louboutin apprenticed backstage at the Follies Bergère as a teenager. "That’s where I learned that shoes are all about posture and proportion.”
Early years Louboutin created shoes for YSL, Chanel, Maud Frizon...
His instantly recognizable red soles were the result of grabbing a bottle of nail polish from a nearby assistant. “It didn’t take me long to learn from my customers that the red soles were very popular with men,” Christian Louboutin said laughing.
His shoes are like works of art, like sculpture...
As is everything inside his shop like this FAB chaise...
Does Jennifer Lopez have the same wall of Louboutins at home?
Bear loved this crazy mural of a marauding bear...
