For anyone who follows fashion, French shoe designer Christian Louboutin is the height of sophistication. His famous red soled shoes, on display at the Design Museum, are so beautifully crafted they could be said to stretch the boundary between fashion and artistry, engineering and sculpture. This exhibition celebrates Louboutin's career to date - it's been twenty years since he opened his first shop in Paris - and reveals the theatricality of his shoe design from skyscraping stilettos to lace-up boots. Material from Christian Louboutin's personal archive reveals how he designs his shoes, the origins of the distinctive red sole - a Louboutin trademark - as well as the latest collections including handbags and a range for men. Given his long list of celebrity fans - Lady GaGa, Victoria Beckham, Sarah Jessica Parker and Madonna among them - this is a chance for the rest of us to see what's inside their closets.About Design Museum
Located on the banks of the Thames, the Design Museum has two floors and showcases contemporary design in all forms, including fashion, graphic and architectural. There are two main galleries, and the collections trace the history of design developments, from the origins of mass production to contemporary works. More about Design Museum
