Twenty Years Of Louboutin, A Stiletto Anthology

A Fairytale Start

Christian Louboutin opened his first boutique in Paris in 1991 at only 27 years old, with Princess Caroline of Monaco as one of his first customers.

“Caroline is the second fairy in my life. Caroline came in my store at a very early stage in December 1991. A journalist who did a story on new shops was by coincidence there and when she spotted Caroline, she wrote a huge article that brought me many buyers and sales went up," Louboutin said.
