Red bottoms have officially arrived in Houston! Last week I (Alyssa) had the pleasure of checking out Christian Louboutin’s newest store in The Galleria and let me just say…it is 2200 square feet of glam at its finest!
This store marks the brand’s 135th opening globally, the 2nd location in Texas, and the first stand-alone store in Houston. We are truly becoming a fashion capitol! It sits in the luxury Neiman Marcus wing and fits in perfectly with its neighbors MaxMara and Miu Miu.
The store is split between women’s and wen’s, with separate spaces that are clearly defined thanks to the NY based architecture firm 212box. This store carries the complete collection including the trendy styles you see on the runway, many of which the designer reserves for only his own stores, exclusively.
The women’s side is covered in the brand’s “signature red” carpet, mirrored displays, and gold accents. Very luxe and girly!
Louboutin’s latest women’s collection is all about comfort with the addition of block heels, sandals, flats, and sneakers (thank you)!!
Don’t worry ladies, there are still plenty of stilettos to choose from!
There is also a wide selection of totes and crossbodies (I wouldn’t be disappointed if any of these ended up under my Christmas tree, hint hint), small leather goods, and the brand’s newest line of fragrances and lip colors.…..the CL brand in its entirety!
The men’s section is uber masculine with grey patterned flooring, structured seating, and dark lacquered walls.
The collection is bold to say the least. Think classic style with modern elements – studded sneakers, crystal covered loafers, and colorful lace-up oxfords. The guys have to look fabulous too!
Be sure to stop by the next time you’re in The Galleria and shop some of my Louboutin favorites below!
