Christian Louboutin first European transaction website

Christian Louboutin will open its first European transactional

website in 2012.

To celebrate the launch, and to support Online Fashion Week, Louboutin will make a charitable donation to The Starlight Children's Foundation for every person who "likes" the announcement post on the company's Facebook page.

The website launch coincides with the brand’s 20th anniversary and the opening of the first store in Paris in 1992.

Not only will the site allow European customers to shop online for the first time - following the success of the US and Canadian online boutiques, which launched in 2010 and 2011 respectively - but Louboutin will also offer some exclusive styles not available elsewhere.
