Christian Louboutin Designs Barbie Shoes

by POPSUGAR Fashion 16

To celebrate her 50th birthday in style next year, Mattel Inc. has enlisted Christian Louboutin to design a special pair of pumps for Barbie. "I guess I always had a little 'girlie side' who liked Barbie," said Louboutin. "Barbie needs to wear great shoes because every girl needs to wear great shoes." The shoes will be made in the renowned Barbie Pantone 219 Pink and will be unveiled at Mattel's runway show during New York Fashion Week in February. Mattel has also enlisted 50 yet-to-be-named designers to create Barbie-inspired outfits for the show. Lucky doll!
