Christian Louboutin, an obscure cabaret assistant, noticed the likeness between the finesse of the high-heeled shoe and that of the dome. The shoe’s sole was a metaphor for the canopy of heaven, and worthy of adoration. Naturally, he then decided that the color red-the color of passion-would apply.
Jennifer Lopez has recorded a hit song “Louboutins” and this designer’s footwear is popular with other stars, who use it both on stage and in daily life. The signature red bottoms have become a symbol of the gracious living.
