Louboutin's Glass Slippers

The man behind the red soles has created real-life Cinderella glass slippers.

The collaboration was announced back in April, when Christian Louboutin was invited to bring Cinderella's iconic slippers to life to coincide with the worldwide release of Cinderella: The Diamond Edition.

Unveiled during Paris fashion week, Louboutin's heels perfectly encapsulate the beauty and fantasy of Walt Disney's legendary film.  "Cinderella is not only an iconic character when it comes to beauty, grace and fairytale love, but also shoes," said Louboutin. "Her character and her story dictated the design to me, it was all there in the pages and the words of this tale."

The design features mesh, lace and crystals, along with crystal covered heels, two delicate shimmering butterflies and naturally, Louboutin's red soles.

Unfortunately these limited edition heels are not available to buy, only 20 pairs were created for the collaboration.
