A Masterpiece, A/W 11 Christian Louboutin Campaign

Brace yourselves shoe lovers... Those of you who follow Louboutin and his beautiful creations know that his lookbooks and campaigns are unique and incredibly interesting.  The A/W 11 campaign for Christian Louboutin by photographer Peter Lippman is no exception and the creativity just keeps on coming.


The photographs showcase the shoes in reenactments of famous 15th century renaissance paintings.  Having the shoes held by strong women in paintings is genuis! I have always found a beautiful pair of shoes to be empowering and this campaign showcases two types of works of art that are both strong and gorgeous to look at. 


I especially have my eye on the Madame au Pigalili gold spiked platforms for evening and the Halte black patent shoe for everyday. I can already imagine them on my feet and the countless outfits I would wear them with!
