What happens when two of fashion’s most rebellious minds come together? The answer is Christian Louboutin x Maison Margiela, a one-of-a-kind footwear collection launching on March 12, 2025. This collab blends Louboutin’s signature red soles with Margiela’s avant-garde vision, resulting in two capsule lines: Maison Margiela by Christian Louboutin and Christian Louboutin by Maison Margiela.

Maison Margiela by Christian Louboutin

This collection reinvents the legendary Tabi shoe with Louboutin’s signature curves and elegance. The famous split-toe design is sculpted to resemble a corset-like silhouette, making it sleek, sensual, and completely unique. The Bridiela Una Strass is a 100mm stiletto with crystal-embellished mesh, available in black, silver, and Louboutin’s signature blush pink. The Loubiella is a strappy sandal that accentuates the foot’s natural curves, available in glossy black or platinum-textured leather. Meanwhile, the Marlougiela is a chic ballet flat with a sharp, sculptural shape, crafted in patent leather or mesh with hand-applied crystals. Of course, each pair features Louboutin’s iconic red sole, blending the best of both brands into a show-stopping collection.

This line flips Louboutin’s classic styles upside down, embracing Margiela’s deconstructed aesthetic. Inspired by the Artisanal couture techniques, these designs strip shoes down to their core structure, revealing layers that are usually hidden. The Bilougiela 25 is a pointed ankle-strap sandal with a 100mm heel, featuring peeled-back patent leather that exposes the shoe’s inner structure. The Martinloula is a stiletto with a sculptural heel, where layers of leather are draped and stripped away, revealing its raw construction. The Xrismarteen takes this a step further as a knee-high boot, with cascading leather layers making it a true statement piece. Finally, the Martoubi 25 is a bold white stiletto with a red brushstroke on the heel, paying homage to Margiela’s hand-painted bianchetto technique and Louboutin’s signature red soles.

Where to Get It

The Christian Louboutin x Maison Margiela collection will be available in select boutiques worldwide and on both brands’ official websites.
