Partying with the likes of Andy Warhol and Mick Jagger back in the day, who'd have thought celebrated shoe designer Christian Louboutin would one day turn his hand to creating nail polish let alone lipsticks?!
Available in September from Saks, the lipstick line will have 36 different shades in three textures - sheer voile, velvet matte and silky satin - inspired by Louboutin shoes and handbags.
Speaking about this new endeavour, Louboutin has stated: "This precious object will be coveted by others. Suggesting a purse full of rare and precious stones that could have been discovered in Ali Baba's cave, it will arouse lust and desire...and is made to be stolen."
On the subject of "But why LIPSTICK?", Louboutin clears that up also: "After the eyes, lips represent the most expressive element of the face. And there's fetish appeal, because lipstick can transform a face from intense to naive or even dangerous...
"With its slow, circular application, lip make-up becomes a rich and sensual gesture."
Can't wait for the lipstick line to drop? Show your love for luxury shoes and nail colour with our edits below...
