After a period of rest, Taylor Swift returned to the stage of The Eras Tour, starting with the European leg. Not only serving the audience with heavily invested performances, Taylor Swift also brought gorgeous, custom-made outfits from famous fashion houses such as Roberto Cavalli, Vivienne Westwood and Versace.

The “common denominator” of Taylor’s fashion shows at the Eras Tour is not in sparkling materials or princess-like designs, but is all completed with crafted red-soled shoes. Sophistication from the Christian Louboutin high heel empire.

In an interview, Christian Louboutin revealed that he created more than 250 pairs of shoes for Taylor Swift’s The Eras Tour .

“When collaborating with stars on their shows, we should first start with a large number of products, with a variety of styles, and then select a collection of suitable designs. Best suited for the stage. Taylor loves entertaining her fans and surprising them day in and day out. So maybe in the future we and she can bring you even more things.”

The Eras Tour is not the first time that Taylor Swift and Christian Louboutin have worked together. The red-soled shoe designer first made shoes for the blonde singer in 2018, when she started her Reputation Stadium Tour. Since then, he has continued to create her own shoes for appearances on the red carpet or at various shows.

Taylor Swift is known for being extremely indulgent with her fans. She always refreshes her performances, from the setlist to the outfit, so that if the audience buys tickets for different shows, they will not feel bored.

During her recent The Eras Tour shows in Paris, Taylor Swift selected seven new pairs of Louboutin shoes, to complement the updated setlist. The two pairs are designed in keeping with the spirit of The Tortured Poets Department era, including a pair of white lace-up ankle boots and silver high-heeled sandals.

In the 1989 era in Sweden, Taylor Swift also wore a new design – boots covered with discolored crystals, one yellow pair with the other blue.

Because the designs are custom and not from a pre-existing collection, before Taylor Swift steps on stage, they are deliberately chosen. The Louboutin brand, Taylor Swift and stylist Joseph Cassell collaborate closely, so that the product from drawing to finished product closely follows the female artist’s desired aesthetic.

Designer Christian Louboutin shares:

“Joseph and Taylor are people who pay great attention to conveying Taylor’s own message and personality through every small detail. So the shoes crafted for The Eras Tour had to reflect Taylor’s colors through each of her eras, but the silhouettes still had to represent the pulse of contemporary fashion.”

The trio worked together to find a style that best matched the aesthetic of each “era” that Taylor performed on stage.

For Fearless, Taylor only wears flat boots. Coming to The Tortured Poet Department era, the brand again creates shoes inspired by the Victorian era. All are coordinated to match outfits from brands like Versace, Roberto Cavalli…, from the color to the size of the crystals encrusted on the boots.

Louboutin also had to ensure that his shoe designs had a certain level of durability and comfort to withstand any dance moves during long performances.

“Performing requires a lot of skill and concentration from the stars, so they cannot be distracted by any outfit or shoes. They need to be designed to be as comfortable as possible, without the stars being distracted, so that their voice and performance ability become the only important tools, ensuring the creation of a performance. best for the audience.”

However, not only does it have an overall support function, Christian Louboutin always knows how to make his shoe designs the bright spot that attracts all attention, always shining in the most seductive way.

“That’s also what I learned from working at Les Folies Bergère. The lighting on stage is very strong and can drown out anything. Therefore, the crystals attached to the shoes must shine brightest and most brilliant. We made sure every spectator could see Taylor’s Elenora boots no matter where they sat in the stands. The brand must ensure that each stone captures the light to create the most brilliant look.”
