Instantly recognisable by their glossy red soles, Louboutin is a name synonymous with quality and class. Inspired at the age of 12 by showgirls at the famous Parisian nightclub ‘The Palace’, Louboutin’s shoes are “all about the legs, how they carry themselves, the embellishment of the body”. Since 2003 the label has also been selling a range of handbags.
