Christian Louboutin - 11 New Stores

Yesterday morning, 8 October 2010, Christian Louboutin announced that he will be expanding his brand with 11 new stores. In a very bold move Louboutin has become the only luxury brand to be broadening its retail horizons. According to the Sunday Telegraph, Rolex is considering setting up shop in the lavish One Hyde Park, a new £1 billion London development.

Since the brand's launch in Paris back in 1991, his creations have kept the trademark shiny, red-lacquered soles that have become his signature over the past years. Louboutin fileed an application for U.S. trademark protection of this red sole design on March 27, 2007.

Included in this new expansion product of the brand, Australia can look forward to the first Christian Louboutin store in Australia which will open in Sydney's Westfield Sydney in 2011, adding to the existing 29 Christian Louboutin stores.
