Famously fabulous Robertson Boulevard is ready for a fresh onslaught of stilettos as famed French footwear manufacturer Christian Louboutin opened its new 212box-designed store on the Los Angeles shopping strip this fall.One side is covered in custom white ceramic tiles, first developed by 212box as a signature Louboutin graphic for its Sao Paulo boutique, each sporting one of 9,000 encrypted letters, numbers or symbols. christian louboutin sale,Seating and ottomans imported from Beirut are strewn about for customers to use while trying on shoes.Located in a 1930's building adjacent to the Hollywood Foreign Press Association offices, the 1,800-square-foot, two-story space was made over by Eric Clough and Eun Sun Chun, principals of New York-based 212box, beginning with new awnings in Louboutin's trademark lipstick red. 
Before entering, customers pass through a new hand-forged iron gate—embedded with Louboutin's logo, of course—and a front patio surrounded by jasmine and ficus bushes. Two large display windows on either side of the entrance offer a preview of the goods within.Architectural details in the first room include such Louboutin boutique trademarks as arched display niches, and a mirrored wall where shoes are supported by white glass shelves.This association of the bird-like shoe in alcoves stays a constant in all my boutiques". According to Louboutin, the location of this store close to Place des Victoires holds a special meaning, as its statue of Louis XIV is wearing one of his favorite footwear: 'a type of reworked leather sandal'. The boutique's middle section contains a combination cash wrap/bar, where champagne is served. Clad in tin panels and fronted with built-in swivel stools, it sits adjacent to a large banquette. At the rear of the store is a 26-foot-high back wall clad in antique mirror panels, and a stairwell that incorporates a screen of blown glass bubbles as a railing.
Unlike the other two Parisian stores, this one has a pretty large and impressive window display, thanks mainly to the fact that the storefront stretches along both the main street and the side corridor of an ancient shopping gallery. For those who don't really have the time or energy to go in, just looking at the window display is a treat in itself.If you do venture into the L-shaped shop, you'll be greeted with the familiar red plush carpets, colorful sofas - these ones have a North African design - and the previously mentioned pigeonholes displaying the red-soled shoes like works of art. Product-wise the stock will generally be the same as the other boutiques, give and take a few styles, but the staff will be happy to call around for you if your size isn't available.
For those who've never seen a Louboutin store from the inside, here's the basic idea for this first boutique opened in 1992 (and all subsequent flagships). To quote Monsieur L. himself: "The first Paris shop was conceived as a dove cot (un colombier) in which I could display every shoe in their own niche (or alcove) like birds.christian louboutin sale, The more interesting shoes I saw this time round included Lizard Simples in various pastel colors, bright patent Ron Rons in hot pink, Eugenies in black and silver, metallic Differas and summery Paquitas in light pink The sales assistants are very friendly by the way, so taking your time while looking at each exquisitely made high-heel or boot isn't an issue.
