Christian Louboutin confirms that some of his designs for the Eras tour were based on fan edits, per Taylor’s request

The Times posted an interview with Louboutin earlier this week, in which he briefly discussed his work for the Eras tour. I’ll share a link to the article in the comments, but here is the relevant portion:

“It was great working with Taylor Swift on her Eras tour. To mimic her shiny personality, the shoes had sparkling crystals all over. I love the show. Because it was such a long tour, we had to redo things. It’s nice to see the evolution. Pictures of her on stage were coming out, and she would be like, ‘That dress is good. The boots are good. But the combination…’ She would show us pictures from her fans recolouring things, and sometimes it looked so great, she’d say, ‘Why don’t we incorporate that?’”

To really make sure we knew which shoes they were talking about, the article included this photo:

What’s it like to BRAG about getting bitches and models?

I think we all know which fan edit we are talking about here, but just in case anyone’s not in the loop:

Low key wish she would’ve kept the tassels.

It may be a small win, but I feel like it’s a win nonetheless.
