Why louboutin is comfortable

Even if they can only totter around in their Louboutins, that is no bad thing, he told AFP. If the shoes "stop you running", that is something "positive", he added. Having learnt his art under Roger Vivier, the man who claimed to have invented the stiletto, Louboutin became a household name in the s after Princess Caroline of Monaco fell for one of his first solo creations. But even as some luxury brands like Dior, led by feminist designer Maria Grazia Chiuri, have taken an axe to towering heels, Louboutin insisted they still had their place.

Louboutin revealed his life-long fascination with heels was sparked when he was 10 years old and saw a sign banning the shoes at the Palais de la Porte Doree—the museum now holding his retrospective.

Louboutin also credited the sign with plunging him into "the universe of curves" which was to shape his art. And he insisted that is art was not just about making heels higher and higher. While some feminists see vertiginous heels as sexual enslavement, Louboutin believes the opposite - even if it means women have to walk slowly and carefully in his iconic red-soled creations.

While Louboutin also makes trainers and flat shoes, he admitted that when it comes to the spike-heeled classics that made his name: "I don't think about comfort when I design. They are not meant to be worn all the time, but super high heels allow women to express themselves and break free of crushing norms, he said. Why renounce high heels when you can have them and flats," he said.

Not meant to be comfy "I don't want people to look at my shoes and say: 'They look really comfortable!
