Iconic shoe designer Christian Louboutin is famous for his red-soled shoes. The designer has been able to parlay this devout following into collaborations with other fashion brands, Barbie makeovers, and even dessert. Of course, his unique and much sought after footwear is Louboutin's bread and butter but Christian Louboutin shoes are just the tip of the chic iceberg.
Implications - Red can be seen as a color that represents power and ferocity, which is especially important in the fashion industry. Making bold statements is about being noticed and not blending into the background. Adding small accents of bright color to a muted outfit will add enough flavor to make someone noticeable in a good way.
