There are high heels, and then there are these… ChristianLouboutin has designed these awe-inspiring eight inch stilettos to help raise money for the English National Ballet.
Featuring that famous red sole and adorned with Swarovski crystals, the heels were inspired by ballet – emulating the shape of a dancer’s pointe shoe.
Did you take one look at these Christian Louboutin Point Shoe Stilettos and immediately think, “Whoa, high-end fetish gear?” If you did, you spend far too much time on the Internet, just like I do. And although these shoes do look an awful lot like the bondage shoes featured on sites less family-friendly than this one, these Louboutins are for a much more high-brow purpose: to benefit the English National Ballet.
“I could not help being inspired by English National Ballet – after all – isn’t the classical dancing ballet slipper the ultimate heel?” explains the designer. “The louboutin heels which makes dancers closer than any other women to the sky, closer to heaven!”The footwear was on display at the ENB’s summer party at The Orangery in Kensington Gardens last night – where they were auctioned off to raise much needed funds for the dance company.
The louboutins shoes features hand beading and an eight-inch stiletto heel with no platform, putting anyone brave enough to wear them up on her toes like a dancer. But obviously these shoes are intended to be an art piece and collector’s item, not a shoe that should ever grace one’s feet. I can’t help but wonder who bought them at auction last night – was it one of you ladies out there?That’s right, they’re point shoes! Point shoe stilettos. The ballet asked a number of designers to make custom pieces for a charity auction, and Louboutin’s extreme contribution is perhaps the most notable.
A whole host of other designers including Julien Macdonald, Moschino and Giles Deacon have also contributed pieces of ballet-inspired fashion to the cause.Stick with us for more designer shoes info.
