During Paris Fashion Week, Christian Louboutin celebrated the 30th anniversary of the birth of the red sole and the highly anticipated debut of the 2023 Autumn/Winter women’s collection by presenting a spectacular Loubishow at the historic Paris Opera House.
Christian Louboutin, always an outstanding performer, showcased the 2023 Autumn/Winter women’s collection, once again bringing a magnificent Loubishow. Famous fashion figures from around the world, such as Korean singer HyunA, Canadian singer Avril Lavigne, American actress Ashley Park, and supermodel Coco Rocha, were also invited to participate in this glamorous celebration.
This unique dance performance at Loubishow is curated by renowned choreographer Sadeck Berrabah. The stage is covered in reflective material, creating a visually striking effect of red soles, highlighting the brand’s most iconic design feature.
50 dancers put on specially made black and white Astribottas boots for the performance, interpreting the meticulously designed “tutting” dance steps and incorporating innovative Egyptian hand dance elements into the performance. They use complex and coordinated body and hand movements to create various geometric shapes, which is truly impressive.
