Estepic Laminated Leather Spiked Pumps 100

While Christian Louboutin's spikes may call punk aesthetics to mind, the original inspiration for the instantly recognisable motif came from Mr. Louboutin's love of French medieval furniture, nodding to the juxtaposition of soft velvets and imposing spikes. Here, the brand reflects that contrast by detailing the swooping lines of its pumps with a statement-making series of silver-tone thorns, recalling the duality of a rose's thorned beauty.

With their signature red soles, Christian Louboutin’s shoes helped define a decade. Yet his footwear extends beyond the dizzying stiletto heels he’s best known for, to classically elegant black pumps, sleek leather loafers, ankle boots, luxe sneakers and nostalgic espadrille wedges, all exuding his trademark glamour.
