Shoes for men are about elegance or wealth, they are not playing with the inner character. That is why women are happy to wear painful shoes.

More quotes by 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
One moves more slowly in heels. Walking fast is neither sexy nor engaging. Nobody notices the people who race around. If you're walking in heels, you've got time. It's much more attractive.
Christian Louboutin
My mother was a huge influence on me - she was a free spirit and helped me appreciate, from a very early age, that everyone is different.
Christian Louboutin
I like to undress women - not to dress them. You know, like Manet's 'Olympia' or Helmut Newton's photographs - naked women with shoes. This is what I am trying to do.
Christian Louboutin
There's nothing I liked visually of the period I was a child. There was no dream in it, and nothing sparkled.
Christian Louboutin
My favorite sound is definitely mules. If it was an instrument, it's really pingthe touch of the black keys of the piano.
Christian Louboutin
I perfectly understand the obsession with shoes. I myself am pretty obsessed. I have a few hundred pairs of shoes in general, because I've been collecting shoes for a long time.

Everyone has their dates. For me, it's 1991. I can place every memory of my life either before or after this date. It's the year I became an adult. My mother died, and I created my company shortly thereafter. I definitely would not have done it if she hadn't passed away.
Christian Louboutin
A house is very much like a portrait. I cannot disconnect houses from people. The thought of arrangement, the curves and straight lines. It gives an indication of the character at the heart of it.
Christian Louboutin
I am more feminist than feminists.
Christian Louboutin
If I could do shoes for anyone, it would be a special project for the Queen of England.
Christian Louboutin
I mean, the shoe - there is a music to it, there is attitude, there is sound, it's a movement.
Christian Louboutin
When you are too specific on a target, it can drain you. Ask me where I will be when I am 60, and I will have no answer to give.
Christian Louboutin
Designing is always on the mind of a designer, and as I was saying it's a sort of digestive process, so I usually keep it to myself unless I'm collaborating with someone because explaining all the things that are going on in your head can be quite exhausting, especially in the early stages of a project.
Christian Louboutin
When I started to work on perfume, I could not reduce the idea of a woman to one smell.
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 red sole was born from red nail polish. I am giving back to beauty what the shoes took from the nails many years ago.
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
To feel like a woman, wear heels, to feel like a goddess, wear five inches.
Christian Louboutin
I'll do shoes for the lady who lunches, but it would be, like, a really nasty lunch, talking about men.
