“…Marking as their third collaboration between the brand and Idris and Sabrina Elba. This special collection embellishes the brand's narrative of luxury in a captivating manner…”

It's somewhat intriguing that this exceptional collection didn't stem from the usual design lab, rather, it began with a small online meeting between Christian Louboutin and the familiar faces of British actor Idris Elba and his wife Sabrina Elba. They were joined by key co-founder of the #BlackLivesMatter movement, Ayo Tometi, discussing themes of cultural acceptance.

The discussion topic has evolved into an inspiration rooted in the unique culture of Africa, which the brand has interpreted into vibrant patterns and colours woven throughout various pieces of this special collection. This includes standout items like the Fatima 120, named by the designer after Sabrina's sister. This stunning pair of high heels features an enchanting curved design that is sure to captivate anyone who sees it.

Additionally, since this collection is rooted in the stories of racial diversity and aims to eliminate those dividing lines, Christian Louboutin has decided to donate all the proceeds from this capsule collection to six global charities, including The Gathering For Justice, Elman Peace, Immediate Theatre, The Raining Season, Casa 93, and AfriKids.
