Christian Louboutin Spring 2008 Handbags
Christian Louboutin pays homage to his red soled stilleto roots for his handbag collection for Spring 2008. Along with a signature red satin lining, each handbag either has high heeled charms or a kiss lock closure. The bags themselves aren’t distinctive enough, but little details like these may make a die hard Louboutin fan consider these handbags to go with her red soled shoe collection.
From WWD:
Louboutin introduced handbags about two years ago, and has even collaborated with a local graffiti artist on some styles. Recently, however, he assembled a dedicated team of designers, merchandisers and production experts to build the business and respond to growing demand from customers, especially for daytime styles.
Part one of his fall 2008 collection includes a range of functional bags — some with built-in pocketbooks, others with intricate passementerie embroideries — along with jewel-like evening clutches and pouches with chain handles. A coin-purse-style clasp with two heel-to-heel stilettos is a signature feature on many styles.
The handbags are priced from $1195 - $1795 and are available for pre-order from Neiman Marcus and Bergdorf Goodman to ship no later than May 2nd.
