'Vera' Louboutin-style leopard ankle boots

'Vera' Louboutin-style leopard ankle boots

The leopard print look isn't going anywhere in a hurry - it's official. Just ask Mulberry, who based their entire autumn/winter 2010 runway show on The Jungle Book! So if you've been a fan of Louboutin's leopard booties for a while, you might be interested in this high street 'homage' from Boohoo, which gets the look pretty much "spot-on"!
The boots are black suedette with a fold-over panel featuring fleecy and warm animal print fabric, and a tell-tale red heel. Tempted? This is a great price...

Christian Louboutin helped bring stilettos back into fashion in the 1990s and 2000s, designing dozens of styles with heel heights of 120mm (4.72inches) and higher. The designer's professed goal is to make a woman look sexy, beautiful, to make her legs look as long as [he] can. While he does offer some lower-heeled styles, Louboutin is generally associated with his dressier eveningwear designs incorporating bejeweled straps, bows, feathers, patent leather and other, similar decorative touches.

In his U.S. trademark application, Louboutin explains the inception of the signature red soles:
In 1992 I incorporated the red sole into the design of my shoes. This happened by accident as I felt that the shoes lacked energy so I applied red nail polish to the sole of a shoe. This was such a success that it became a permanent fixture.

Louboutin received inspiration for his lethal-looking stilettos from an incident that occurred in his early twenties. He had visited a museum and noticed that there was a sign that forbade women to enter while wearing sharp stilettos, for fear of damage to the extensive wood flooring. This image stayed in his mind, and he later used this idea in his designs.I wanted to defy that, Louboutin has said.I wanted to create something that broke rules and made women feel confident and empowered. Christian Louboutin has topped The Luxury Institute's annual Luxury Brand Status Index (LBSI) for three years; the brand's offerings were declared the Most Prestigious Women's shoes in 2007, 2008 and 2009.
