Marchesa and Christian Louboutin teamed up to present a glorious collection of see-through stilettos and peep-toe platform pumps for Spring 2010. A stunning stiletto is the perfect compliment to any outfit, but the scarlet-soled Louboutins are the natural choice when thinking about the spectacular evening gowns Georgina Chapman and Keren Craig’s label is known for.

For the Marchesa Spring 2010 show, Louboutin concocted two elaborate [platform peep-toe pumps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/platformstyle-sandals) and three styles of [sky-high see-through stilettos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sergio-rossi). Two of these see-through stilettos styles are peep-toe booties with multi-strap ankle ties. During Marchesa’s Spring 2010 presentation one of the model showcased her intricately tattooed feet through the sheer-fronted booties. A variation of this design will be featured in the 'Sex and the City 2' movie (along with at least three other Louboutin styles).
