Let Them Eat Cake and Wear Louboutins! Part Un

The Marie Antoinette capsule collection

        With her weakness for indulgent fashion, Marie Antoinette would have surely lost her head over Christian Louboutin’s new capsule collection in her honor. Mr. Louboutin has teamed with renowned embroiderer Jean-Francois Lesage (House of Lesage) to create these extravagant heels in pink, yellow, and blue. Only 36 pair exist in the world and each has been stamped with a limited edition number. If you happen to have the $6,295 to spend on these artfully decorated heels you’ll get them in a specially created box with a booklet that describes the creation process. Merci beaucoup, Monsieur Louboutin!!
