La Pigalle
Pigalle: a Parisian locale, nestled at the foot of Montmartre, that has itself become an identity, an attitude - translated indelibly to Pigalle, the iconic shoe that defines Christian Louboutin. Pigalle is an emblem of Parisianity, of femininity, and nocturnal glamour. A colour of passion and desire.
“The Pigalle shoe embodies a whole idea of femininity: by wearing it, women are at the very essence of femininity. In reality, it's simply a line: if you draw the leg, you see the continuity of the ankle, the instep, and the heel. All of this is part of the same design; nothing protrudes from this shoe.” - Christian Louboutin

The dream of Pigalle
The dream of Pigalle
Its origin was ignited by Christian Louboutin's own childhood memories: a museum sign, with a stiletto crossed out, forbidden and dangerous, fascinating and enticing. Consider too the rhythm of the dancers of les Folies Bergère, Christian's fantasy clients as a teenager, their arched feet moving effortlessly, exaggeration, freedom, an esprit… The dream of Pigalle was ignited.
