The devil is always in the details when it comes to Christian Louboutin‘s shoes and bags, and it’s mostly due to the designer’s knack for combining ornate patterns and textures into one smooth, elegant whole. Louboutin’s Spring 2016 collection is especially exciting because we have three new bag styles to look forward to (and, of course, an array of fancy footwear).
Louboutin continues his trajectory to expand the brand’s line of handbags, and spring’s efforts include the Paloma Tote, the Triloubi Crossbody and the Eloise Tote. The Paloma is the most structured handbag we’ve seen from the brand, and it features a portfolio interior. Inspired by Louboutin’s love for Parisian cabaret showgirl, the Paloma is equal parts feminine and edgy with its signature spiked gussets.
The Triloubi is a sleek everyday option if you prefer to carry a shoulder or crossbody bag. The three zipper compartments are spacious enough to keep you organized and still fit all the essentials. The Eloise Tote features the signature spiked Louboutin bow you’ll recognize from one the brand’s popular Sweet Charity design, and all three new options are both practical and visually striking.
When talking Louboutin, you can’t leave out the shoes. The designer references nature throughout this collection, with aquamarine and Amazonian motifs, patterns and textures. As always, it’s the minor details on a Louboutin that make the biggest impact, as you’ll see in the hand-placed crystals on the Dorissima Clair Strass Pump or the bead work on the Tipika Gab Brode Sandal.
But if I may take a moment to obsess over what I believe to be the the standout piece in this collection: the leopard pony hair and mesh So Baker Specchio Knot Pony Sandals. (Amanda said I could pull these off, and that’s all the reassurance I need). There’s a lot going on for one sandal, but they’re so striking and sexy–basically everything the Louboutin brands stands for!

Christian Louboutin Soustelissimo 120mm Patent Veau Velours Pump
gorgeous. when can i purchase.
Some of the collection is already available for purchase and the rest of the collection will be rolling out in the upcoming months!
I would love the pumps in slide #23…. so beautiful!!!!
Per the usual most are over the top. I love CL when they are a little more sophisticated and a moderate pitch..and I love the pointy toe flats.
Holdonasec. Why is Bag Slide #7 looking like a purse version of a Y-Front?
Some are amazing, some not so much. But pony hair is disgusting. Why can’t he use haircalf? I love bovine leather, and I’ll eat beef all day long, but horses are friends, not tacky fashion statements. Boo.
I thought “pony hair” was just a marketing term, and it still comes from cows. Can someone correct me if I’m wrong?
On a slightly related note, I just recently turned vegetarian and sadly for me that means no more fancy leather bags. I’d love if Purseblog could do a post on veg-friendly bags 🙂
Sure! Happy to!
The paloma looks like the bag he designed for Louis Vuitton.
I want that tote with the zipper embellishment, but it’s not on the website :(.
Which one? As of right now the Paloma and the Triloubi are on the Louboutin website! The rest of the collection will be available soon. 🙂
Really gorgeous collection. x
