The footwear designer says he needs to be on his own when he is creating his shoes as it helps to inspire him. He dreams about them. Christian Louboutin has to be "isolated from everything" when he designs his shoes. He said: "I have to be alone to design, I’m quite spoilt. I can’t do it in cities: I have to be isolated from everything. I need to be in an environment I’m familiar with so that I’m not looking around and getting distracted."

He said: "I dream about shoes. They often look silly in reality, but it happens all the time - I see them while I’m asleep and I wake up, just desperate to recreate them."

This reflects Christian Louboutin's dedication and passion towards his craft, ensuring each design is a masterpiece favored by celebrities such as Victoria Beckham, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Beyoncé Knowles.
