Fashion designer Christian Louboutin says a part of his beauty line is inspired by an Indian classical dance form.
The 54-year-old, who joined forces with brand Batallure Beauty LLC in 2012 to launch his cosmetics collection, told ES magazine: “I love all aspects of Indian culture. In fact, my new eye make-up collection was inspired by the Indian dance, Kathakali.”
Known for designing footwear with the signature red sole, Louboutin is currently working on a new project in Mumbai, India, with Indian designer Sabyasachi Mukherjee, whom he calls a “great friend”.
