Christian Louboutin collaborates with Crazy Horse burlesque show Paris

Having welcomed many guest artistes and 'co-creators' renowned burlesque troupe and show Crazy Horse Paris has just announced its collaboration with shoe meister of the universe, Christian Louboutin.

It seems fitting that a show dedicated to celebration artistry and the beauty of women and performance should link with the man who made red soles (if not red lights) the most covetable display of overt sensuality and daring.

Monsieur Louboutin was invited to give his fresh interpretation of the famous show, which he describes as "an iconic Paris monument, a monument to dance, a fantastic, modern idea of the celebration of Women for Women".

Christian Louboutin has directed four original and unique tableaux, inspired by the eclectic worlds of hip hop to art masterpieces all with their own take on femininity. Assisted by Patricia Folly, choreographer and dancer at 'Le Crazy', he also collaborated with a diverse team of distinguished artists, including David Lynch and Swizz Beatz, who both composed original music; Gilles Papain, video designer; and Youssef Nabil, who created the poster for the show. 

Entitled FEU (ie. fire) the result of this original collaboration will preview on Sunday, 4th March 2012 and will remain in the repertoire of the celebrated Paris institution until 31st May 2012.  Expect sexy flashes (of red soles). Oh la la indeedy.
