This year marks Christian Louboutin’s twentieth anniversary – cheers to two decades of red soles and big glamour! The brand is celebrating with the Capsule Collection, just in time for Spring: 20 quintessential shoe styles, along with six limited-edition bags, all based on Louboutin’s favorite themes and inspirations: art, architecture, cabaret life, and wild adventures. He has also always been inspired by Parisian dancers, likening them to birds of paradise.
This unusual and whimsical bag is just that: part-showgirl, part exotic animal – and I’m obsessed with it! Hand-painted python and hand-dyed goose and hen feathers come together for an uplifting concoction that won’t be tamed. Sure, the rainbow-flurry of feathers is a tad on the flamboyant side, but sometimes you just want to be the center of attention. Bursting out over your shoulder like a fantastical wing, the Artemis Plumes bag is just the thing to get you there.
Available Feb 13th at Christian Louboutin for $8,995. Check out the Louboutin Facebook page for more details!
Almost 9k, seriously??? Given this bag’s size and skin it should only cost around 1 or 2 grand. I accept the fact in designer terms its fair to charge double (paying for the brand etc.) and say the feathers add an extra grand. That’s still 4/5 grand tops! (Still pretty insane though). $8,995? You must be joking Monsieur Louboutin
Just posted another one of these unreal Louboutin 20th Anniversary bags on my blog! They are works of art. The bird of paradise one here is beautiful but my face is the Artemis Paris – http://thebuzzaddict.blogspot.com/2012/02/artemis-paris-part-of-20th-anniversary.html
