Christian Louboutin’s “So Kate” kraft paper stilettos ($795) are a nod to the famed designer’s past. Crumpled kraft paper bearing torn edges and lacquer-red linings nods to vintage Christian Louboutin shopping bags on a pointy-toe pump with a plunging topline. Part of the inside-out “Loubi in Progress” collection, the style brings bits of construction canvas, grosgrain piping and other unseen design elements to the forefront and preserves them under clear PVC. Christian Louboutin’s iconic red sole—born from a fateful brush with red nail lacquer—lends signature brilliance to every step. Made in Italy.
