.LouboutinWorld revisits highlights of a glamorous, joyful social life in W's new series, My Life in Parties.
With Azzedine Alaïa, the fashion stylist Carlyne Cerf de Dudzeele, and John Galliano. “Azzedine became Farida’s godfather, so I knew him really well, and I’ve known John since forever.” For all their mutual admiration, and many shared nights out once upon a time, Galliano and Louboutin have never collaborated. Louboutin has created runway shoes for many other labels, though, including Thierry Mugler, Viktor & Rolf, Rodarte, Marchesa, Victoria Beckham, and Mary Katrantzou.
“That’s the fashion designer Zandra Rhodes, Vincent [Darré, who would go on to become a sought-after interior designer and creative director], and Duggie Fields, a painter whom I love, at a party of Zandra’s in London. I was maybe 14 or 15. We took the bus and a boat from Paris, and slept on the floor of a friend of Duggie’s.”
“Ms. Diane von Furstenberg is divine to travel with. We did the whole Silk Road together, going to the middle of nowhere in Uzbekistan to find some ikat-fabric maker she wanted to see. Here, we’re in Egypt on my boat. We’d wake up and chat and fall back asleep again. ‘You didn’t see anything of Egypt!’ I told her. She said, ‘I know, but I slept so well!’ ”
“I’ve always had a fascination with showgirls.” Decades after working at the Folies-Bergère, where he was a coffee boy when he was 17, Louboutin became the Crazy Horse Paris cabaret’s first guest creative director in 2012 with a show called “Feu” —he created four numbers, redid an older one, and designed all the dancers’ shoes. Here he is at the Moulin Rouge, in the Pigalle neighborhood of Paris.
