Christian Louboutin Unveils Pop Art Fall/Winter 2026 Collection Campaign

written MALCOLM THOMAS

On Tuesday, Christian Louboutin unveiled its artful take on its Fall/Winter 2026 womenswear collection with a paint and watercolour-streaked campaign, an homage to fine art’s continued influence on the house. Previously inspired by René Magritte, this season a touch of 80’s style seemed to be on Louboutin’s mood board, featuring purples, yellows, greens and reds, splashed across sleek industrial environs to complement the offerings, highlighting above all else the enduring legacy of the Pigalle. Re-fashioned as La Pigalle, the infamous shoe now offers a padded insole for superior support, a deeper red sole and a fresh range of styles, currently available in water snake, python and crystal.  

Other additions include sculptural sandal Rosa Fruit, Einsail On The Feet, offered as both a pump and a mule, featuring lavish details such as leaves, flowers and hand-set crystal snails and the Kate Max Veggie, a pearl, sequin and crystal-embroidered vegetable delight, a direct influence from the vibrancy of Louboutin’s personal garden. Rounding out the new additions are the Plume and Birdie—feather, glittering crystal and stone-embellished footwear inspired by the cabaret.

Other styles of note are the Venus Tulip Baguette, named after the Roman goddess of love. The Tulip Baguette is a limited-edition bag of embossed tulip design, specially crafted by hand. The Bettina Tote was introduced in corn yellow this season; the Eva Shoulder Bag made its return in veau velours empire, and the Sabrina evening clutch, a satin-finished stretch neoprene pouch wristlet, is offered in black and empire, alongside a special edition adorned with feathers and strass.

Cheers to the art of dressing.

The Fall/Winter 2026 Women’s collection is now available in stores.

Christian Louboutin Men’s SS 2027 - Jaden Smith Expands the Christian Louboutin Universe

A Review of Jaden Smith’s Christian Louboutin Spring/Summer 2027 Menswear Collection

As if plucked from the ruins of Pompeii, outside the Palais Brogniart on a white-hot day in Paris, two red foot sculptures stood parallel against the stone steps behind them. A banner was draped in the distance. Outside the entrance of what resembled a Rosetta Stone, a manifesto was written. “You are now entering the ruins of an ancient kingdom. Past these doors, you leave this world and enter the realm of Christian Louboutin Men’s”.

Indeed, Jaden Smith’s sophomore presentation was a cultural smörgåsbord bathed in red light. History’s biggest hits propped shoes and accessories in carved out corners and atop formations. Models navigated a crop circle with a Stonehenge-imitation structure in the background—interacting with guests and each other in passing.

​Some pieces from the Christian Louboutin Avant-Première collection made a return, such as the Multipocket Vest and TCT Harness. Smith also expanded on Louboutin’s leather goods offerings with the Nostalgic style family, which includes the Hobo and the Backpack. Some pieces took a turn for the fantastical with The Corteo and the Louis from Louboutin’s Child Like Wonder offerings, inspired by Smith’s childhood paper cut-outs. Yet, the most conceptual symbols that the Jaden Smith x Christian Louboutin era is upon us, were Stone Mason’s Feet made from a single piece of leather and cut into square-shaped toes, and the Claw Slide, an animal claw editorialised as a wearable piece of contemporary sculpture.

Of course, there were a variety of everyday pieces too, a patent-leather gradient evening shoe and a classic weekender being among them. Closing out his collection with an A-list afterparty that included a very fashionable Smith family outing, Jaden Smith is clearly aimed at cementing himself as king in a Christian Louboutin “kingdom” of his own design.

The Spring/Summer 2027 Men’s collection will launch in stores on October 28th, 2026.
