Fri 16th May: Shoe Trivia Part 1

This is a snap from one of my excursions whilst in NYC. I was investigating Balenciaga at Barneys and heard comotion coming from the adjoining shoe department.................and discovered a signing by Christian Louboutin with a line of giddy trust fund fans clutching thier prized heels................having to wait even longer due to the impromtu arrival of queue-jumper Naomi Campbell.............

Additional Tenuous Trivia: The Tim Walker exhibition poster (designed by Wren Studio) features a Vogue editorial image of Lisa Cant as a bunny girl in a red room wearing Christian Louboutin red soled shoes. I was assisting Shona Heath on this fairytale shoot from 2004 which also featured a portrait of the shoe designer himself and Nigella Lawson in a ShoeMakers Elves narrative..........complete with gigantic pile of his shoes which was quite a distraction to prop!
