Introducing Christian Louboutin’s Fall/Winter 2024 collection, the Americas has become Christian’s source of inspiration. For the first drop, the theme “Sunset in Rio” takes the stage (or beach) with the sultry saturated colours of Latin beaches. The destination of Rio de Janeiro is known for its festive mood with the city being surrounded by golden beaches. Further animated by poolside cocktails, sunsets on the beach, and the vibrant colours of Brazil’s most famous city, the collection has everything you need to party in style this summer. A hypnotic pastel ombré effect in rhinestone that evokes the sunsets of Rio embellishes several new feminine sandals, all of which will also appear in classic colourways.
From strass-embellished clutch and sandals to leather pumps, these pieces will assemble the perfect additions to enchanting nights out. “Turn the heat up on your summer style”.
The collection’s vibrant colours:
Calipso Pink: The pink seasonal colour is influenced by the Calypso orchid, also known as ‘Venus’ Slipper’. The Barbie-like fashion statement enhances every look to convey a sense of playfulness and elegance.
Pollen Yellow: The colour Pollen is inspired by the powdery grains that fly away to revive the beauty of nature after the winter season. It’s an homage to the golden hues of the sunset making the vivid colourway. It is an energetic tone-up to some of our iconic models, giving a pop and joyful hint to one’s look.
Jacaranda Purple: Named after the marvellous purple flowers of a species of subtropical flowering trees native to the Americas.
