SHOES ON SHOW: Imagine your heel breaking just as you are walking down the street — disaster. Now imagine that happening on the red carpet at the Cannes Film Festival.
“I don’t know what happened, but the heel simply separated itself from my shoe,” remembered actress Anna Mouglalis, speaking at a cocktail celebrating Christian Louboutin’s “L’Exhibitionniste” exhibition in Paris on Monday evening. “I can’t remember how I did it, but I made it in the end.”
Dita Von Teese, Janelle Monáe and Karlie Kloss — all longtime friends of Louboutin’s — swooped in to the Palais de la Porte Dorée to greet the designer and took it in turns posing in front of the awe-inducing displays curated by Olivier Gabet, director of the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris.
Actress Rossy de Palma was wearing a pair of Louboutin crystal-studded trainers. “These are perfect to walk round an exhibition,” she said, adding that she had devoted a whole scene in her 2017 one-woman show “Résilience d’Amour” to Louboutin shoes: in it, she tries to keep her balance in a pair of very high sparkly pumps.
Law Roach has had his share of shoe-related disaster stories.
