Last night I attended the fabulous launch of Christian Louboutin’s new exhibition at the Design Museum, the launch saw admirers, celebrities and press all coming together to have the first ever view of the shoe designer’s fantastic exhibition, with an after party continuing on at the IVY members’ club.

Also in attendance alongside the legendary Christian Louboutin were Dita Von Teese, Sophie Dahl, Daphne Guinness, Jonathan Saunders and Henry Holland. Personal and never seen before photos of the young Louboutin were also on display and the man himself gave an impromptu talk about his love of shoe design and fashion, alongside his interest in Burlesque dancers from a young age. It was a truly memorable evening which was topped off with a soiree at The IVY where Henry Holland played the soundtrack for the evening.
