Iconic Silhouettes, Rare Fabrics, and a Friendship Turned Collaboration—Christian Louboutin and Coco Brandolini D’adda Introduce a Limited-edition Collection.
When Christian Louboutin and Coco Brandolini d’Adda announced their limited-edition capsule collection, it felt like a natural evolution of their long-standing friendship. They bring together their shared passion for unique artistry and timeless design. Together, they’ve crafted a line that is as distinctive as it is exclusive. With only 162 pairs available worldwide, the Christian Louboutin x d’Adda capsule collection is truly a collector’s item.
Their story began years ago, sparked by a special gift: a pair of gold and black boots designed by Louboutin himself. This gift was presented to a teenage Coco by her uncle. This gesture marked the beginning of a close friendship and a shared journey in the world of fashion. Over the years, Coco developed an eye for rare textiles and a love of bold designs. Meanwhile, Christian, the maestro of iconic shoes, shaped his own path. However, they kept their creative bond alive.
REIMAGINING LOUBOUTIN’S CLASSICS
The Christian Louboutin x d’Adda capsule collection features 25 unique shoe designs, ranging from flats to statement heels and boots. Each pair incorporates fabrics from Brandolini d’Adda’s 2022 ready-to-wear collection. These include vintage brocades, archival silks, and floral jacquards. Often reserved for high fashion, these materials transform each shoe into a wearable work of art. Styles like the Adadda and Adaddina Flat showcase Louboutin’s classic silhouettes with Brandolini d’Adda’s unmistakable twist.
“It’s always a pleasure to create designs in dialogue with a woman,” Louboutin shared. He spoke of the ease in collaborating with Coco, his friend. He describes the collection as “really ‘us,’” a testament to their shared belief that creativity should be free and bold.
Brandolini d’Adda’s influence goes beyond just the fabrics. Known for her impeccable taste, she brings meticulous attention to detail. Every design balances practicality with luxury. From butterfly-embellished heels to stunning jacquard peep-toes, the shoes reflect her dedication to craftsmanship. Each piece carries Brandolini d’Adda’s unique touch yet remains thoughtfully designed with women in mind. When a heel felt a bit too high, she didn’t hesitate to adjust, ensuring comfort for all-day wear.
The Christian Louboutin x d’Adda collaboration is a celebration of two friends who have each left a mark on the industry. Louboutin’s precision blends perfectly with Coco’s artistic sensibility, creating a piece of fashion history.
The Christian Louboutin x d’Adda can be found at Christian Louboutin’s Madison Avenue boutique in New York and the d’AddA showroom in Milan.
