Having a top designer name a piece of fashion in your honour is pretty much as iconic as it can get. Marc Jacobs did it for Jessica Stam and Rihanna, and of course we all know Jane Birkin for Hermes. Now we have the “Dita” – an über glamorous platform ankle boot embellished with sequins and studs and inspired by Dita Von Teese. Created by

The original fashionista Marie Antoinette set a few trends in her day, and it looks like she’ll be setting a few more, thanks to shoe maestro Christian Louboutin. Yes the flamboyant wife of the equally flamboyant Louis XVI is going to bring some light relief to all this economic gloom.
