Louboutin exhibition in Design Museum

Culture

The Design Museum presents the first UK retrospective of iconic French shoe designer Christian Louboutin, celebrating a career which has pushed the boundaries of high fashion shoe design. This exhibition celebrates Louboutin’s career to date and showcases twenty years of designs and inspiration, revealing the artistry and theatricality of his shoe design from stilettos to lace-up boots, studded sneakers and bejeweled pumps. Louboutin’s shoes are the epitome of style, glamour, power, femininity and elegance.

At the core of the exhibition will be a unique exploration of Louboutin’s design process, taking the visitor through every stage of the design journey, revealing how a shoe is constructed, from the initial drawing and first prototype through to production in the factory. Looking beyond design and production the exhibition will also explore the company’s innovative store design.

Also the shoes will be shown that the designer created for the ‘Fetish’ exhibition in 2007 in Paris . For this exhibition, filmmaker and photographer shot a few pictures of unique Louboutin designs. The base of the exhibition is the creative process of the designer. There will be sketches, prototypes and an overview of the production process at the fabric.

The exhibition runs from 28 March 2012 until 01 July 2012.
