With his Christian Louboutin Fall 2022 collection, we are transported to new realms of fantasy universes, be it a thrilling murder mystery or a modern-day Odyssey through Athens and the Cyclades.

This season is a fun and highly whimsical collaboration between Christian and his dear friend, artist Yaz Bukey. Set in an Ottoman palace and inspired by murder mystery detective board games, the exclusive Loubi Mystery capsule unveils the irresistible Llipstick heel with its sleek contours and gold finish, as well as original prints such as the weapons print or the oriental tapis Embroidery. New head-turning styles include the Superyaz sandal, featuring an exceptional metallic embroidery platform heel, and the Yazflirt Alta sandal.

One of the capsule’s stand-out pieces, this velvet platform sandal is meticulously hand-embellished and adorned by a beautiful (but carnivorous!) tulip. Embodying the playfulness so typical of the Maison, fun accessories such as bejeweled shoe clips in the shape of eyes and lips, and novelty socks in unexpected prints and materials complete the offer.

And speaking of novelty: celebrating Christian’s insatiable love of travel, the Maison’s seasonal cabas introduces not one, but two exclusive styles with the Greekaba. Inspired by the land and the sea, each limited-edition piece created in collaboration with Konstantin Kakanias, multifaceted illustrator and a close friend of Christian’s, depicts the designer on his adventures in Athens and the Cyclades with his accomplice Miss Tependris and her faithful poodle Pepe.

The collection launches online and in selected boutiques across the world as of May.
