Christian Louboutin Zitate auf Englisch

Zitat des Tages von Christian Louboutin:

People say I am the king of painful shoes. I don't want to create painful shoes, but it is not my job to create something comfortable. I try to make high heels as comfortable as they can be, but my priority is design, beauty and sexiness. I'm not against them, but comfort is not my focus.

Cinderella is not only an iconic character when it comes to beauty, grace and fairytale love, but also shoes.

People say I am the king of painful shoes. I don't want to create painful shoes, but it is not my job to create something comfortable. I try to make high heels as comfortable as they can be, but my priority is design, beauty and sexiness. I'm not against them, but comfort is not my focus.

The highest heels I do are six-inch heels - but mostly only dancers can wear them, since they are used to being on point in ballet shoes.

Christian Louboutin

I like to see people who are survivors wearing my shoes. I am fascinated by people who can bounce back.

Christian Louboutin

I am more feminist than feminists.

In France you cannot not have lunch. If you stopped the French from having lunch, you will have a second revolution, I can tell you this. Not going to work - it is part of the French privilege.

Christian Louboutin

You need to believe in yourself and what you do. Be tenacious and genuine.

Christian Louboutin

I have this disease that if I feel good somewhere, I... buy a house.

I have always loved tartans - such an ornamented type of weaving, so vivid in colour, and such a masculine aspect. But actually, I think tartans can be feminine or masculine.

Christian Louboutin

I am very much into voices. I would say I'm a fan of voices, not of sound. I'm a fan of singers, not of bands.

Christian Louboutin

I prefer buying things and figuring out where to put them later than regretting not buying them.

Christian Louboutin

I never wanted to design clothes. I never wanted to work for the fashion industry. Shoes sort of belong to the fashion industry, which is why I'm part of the fashion industry. But that's never been my thought. My thought since I was a child was really to design those shoes for girls on stage.

What was called extreme 20 years ago definitely isn't extreme anymore. When I started, I remember people saying, 'Oh my God, I can't walk in that!' It was like, three inches - they look like kitten heels now.

Christian Louboutin

Don't reject a shoe because you can't run in it. It's OK not to run.

Christian Louboutin

Fashion isn't interesting when it comes from an uninspired place. It's like voodoo; we don't want things that are soaked in blood, sweat, and tears. I adore life, and I'm very easygoing - and it shows in my work.

Christian Louboutin

If the height of the heel is the same as the length of your foot, it starts to look wrong. And if the heel is positioned badly on the sole, you get into ballerina territory, where the body is pushed into a very strange posture. You can exaggerate the arch only so much.

Christian Louboutin

I buy Dries van Noten shoes. I love his clothes, too.

Christian Louboutin

I remain faithful to bourbon sour. It's absolutely delicious. You'd have to ask a bartender what's in it, but I think if you know you might never have a drink. I also love a little rum, 7 years aged, brown, when it is chilly, before dinner.

Christian Louboutin

The core of my work is dedicated not to pleasing women, but to pleasing men. Men are like bulls. They cannot resist the red sole.

Christian Louboutin

It is extremely necessary to realize that the world doesn't only have one way of seeing things.

Christian Louboutin

I'm really not a fascist. Everyone wears what they feel great in, or comfortable with. It's a beautiful day, you have an armless shirt: it goes with flip-flops.

Christian Louboutin

I love David Lynch's 'Mulholland Drive;' such a wonderful movie.

Christian Louboutin

A shoe is not only a design, but it's a part of your body language, the way you walk. The way you're going to move is quite dictated by your shoes.

Christian Louboutin

I don't like conflicts. I'm not a competitive person at heart. To be in the middle of turmoil is boring.

Christian Louboutin

I always loved fish for the colors and birds for the plumage. In the same way, I loved those women of the cabaret. They were birds of paradise.

Christian Louboutin

I like Adele, Mika, Natacha Atlas and a beautiful old record, 'An Evening with Belafonte/Mouskouri,' starring Harry Belafonte and Nana Mouskouri. What they have in common is they all have incredible voices. I am very much into voices. I would say I'm a fan of voices, not of sound. I'm a fan of singers, not of bands.

Christian Louboutin

I'm not in the type of work where you should rest.

Christian Louboutin

To me, the word 'decadent' is so difficult to use; it's a very sensitive word, in a way.

Christian Louboutin

When I have meetings scheduled so tight that I can't go to the loo, that's where I draw the line!

Christian Louboutin

I never was interested in being part of the fashion world - I just wanted to design shoes. I didn't even know 'Vogue' existed when I was growing up. 'Vogue,' what is that?'

Christian Louboutin

I'd already decided I wanted to design shoes after I saw a sign in the Museum of African and Oceanic Art forbidding high heels. Well, who could resist?

Christian Louboutin

When you sketch a shoe but don't have the intention to do a proper shoe, it remains a curvy sketch with no detail. The shoe completely morphs to the body.

Christian Louboutin

Even if you don't like colours, you will end up having something red. For everyone who doesn't like colour, red is a symbol of a lot of culture. It has a different signification but never a bad one.

Christian Louboutin

A good pump is a silhouette, like the bone structure of the face. It's like a beautiful face with no make-up. You can cover a not-so-beautiful face with make-up, but it is just a mask - it is the same with shoes.

Christian Louboutin

When a woman buys shoes, she takes them out of the box and looks at herself in the mirror. But she isn't really looking at her shoes - she's looking at herself. If she likes herself, then she likes the shoes.

Christian Louboutin

One thing I detest, I have to say, is when a shoe is too soft, and it's molding to the foot. This is quite disgusting. And I really, really hate incredibly long shoes, where the last is very pointy, almost like Aladdin.
