Twenty years ago, Christian Louboutin was born in the heart of Galerie Vero Dodat. Who could ever predict that the label will be our number one choice in picking shoes. Every one of their pumps is so addictive and we sure want them all to be part of our wardrobe. Mr. Louboutin, one pair please!
A Loubie Pop-Up Store has recently opened in the same location. It’s filled with countless of worldwide limited edition and exclusive shoes and bags. It’s an event that no woman wants to miss, but it’s in Paris, so not all of us can enjoy the experience. Sight!
The shop will feature the irresistible Loubiposh and Panettone wallet. Red and pinky is to celebrate Valentine’s Day, which has already passed, but still it’s a lovely evening accessory. And by the way, red not only represent love, but’s also Christian Louboutin’s mark, on every back of their shoes is painted with deep red shade.
And thus, if it happens that you are nearby Véro-Dodat in Paris, we recommend you to visit their Pop-Up store.
Open until May 31, 2014.
At the centre of the room is a trunk, a bit of the brand’s history. Louis Vuitton created a name for himself producing those trunks for aristocrats in the 1850s. Now they are made to custom order on the outskirts of Paris, and cost upwards of $30,000. Exclusivity didn’t, however, make Louis Vuitton the 20th most valuable brand in the entire world. From the 1980s the company expanded to appeal to an increasing middle class, and the brand makes most of its revenue from selling large quantities product to the center market.As a business version, mass-produced luxury has made Louis Vuitton so successful that it has acquired 70 luxury houses.Just a few weeks back it took control of Christian Dior.To keep profits high, the firm had to lower production costs. This is what led it to Cisnadie, a pastel-hued town where EU flags fly from the lampposts along the primary street. At one end is the sort of fortified church for which Transylvania is famed. At the opposite end is the Somarest factory.LVMH established its original plant here in 2002 to make the most of Romania’s low-wage labour. By 2004, it had been producing 1,500 pairs of shoe uppers weekly, according to the online CV of the organization’s director at the time.Somarest was not keen to discuss how many shoes it currently produces, but the online CV of its operations manager asserts production has increased 70% since 2007, which indicates annual output of well over 100,000 pairs. Another factory was built in nearby Avrig in 2009and to create components for handbags and suitcases.
