Christian Louboutin gets an exhibition at the London Design Museum!
Remember a few weeks ago we showed you Christian Louboutin’s stunning 20th anniversary collection? (The same collection that was apparently sent to Blake Lively in its entirety, may we add, without even a hint of jealousy… promise!)
Well, to coincide with the brand turning 20, the London Design Museum is holding a two-month exhibition containing all things Louboutin!
“We wanted to celebrate his career,” the museum’s curator Donna Loveday said. “He has built one of the most successful shoe brands in the world and we want to explain why. These shoes are beautiful things, even divorced from the wearer, you just want to put them in a case and gaze at them.”
Visitors will reportedly get to witness initial sketches and the designing process of the classic red soled shoes, and much more. We’re imagining a Willy Wonka style experience, but for shoes!
The exhibit runs from May 1st until July 9th… will you be getting a ticket?
