THE VOICE UK:
Famous fashion designer Christian Louboutin has launched an app that enables users to match a shade of nude shoes to their own skin tone.
Five classic styles have been re-imagined in five shades with users able to take a photo of their foot to get an exact match to their skin tone which is said to elongate your legs.
The French designer said: “They disappear like magic and become a fluid extension of her legs, as in a sketch, elongating the silhouette.”
Sold exclusively at Christian Louboutin boutiques the styles in the Nudes collection include the point toe Pigalle, the curvier Fifi and Simple Pump, as well as the Flo and the signature hidden platform of the Vendome peep toe pump.
Louboutin added: “The shoes are there to give the woman an extra lift, not to take attention away from the legs and what she is wearing.”
To celebrate the arrival of the capsule collection in stores this month the Nudes will be featured in Christian Louboutin windows at the Madison and Robertson boutiques.
