Louboutin Wins FN's Sexy Shoe Contest

by KRISTEN HENNING

Posted FRIDAY OCTOBER 15, 2010

From FOOTWEAR NEWS

America has voted, and Christian Louboutin’s crystal-embellished mesh peep-toe pump is the sexiest shoe of the year.

Nearly 8,000 consumers weighed in on 23 designer heels in the online FN Sexy Shoes contest, and the red-sole king took the top prize.

FN Editorial Director Michael Atmore unveiled the honor during an exclusive event at Saks Fifth Avenue’s 10022-SHOE floor on Thursday.

Louboutin’s director of communications, Shawna Rose, told the crowd that the designer’s shoes were like his girls and the winning pair “was one of his favorite girls.”

The runners-up in the contest included heels from Giuseppe Zanotti, Dolce & Gabbana and Jimmy Choo.

Seeing as how I kind of have a shoe "thing" redface , I'd need to see the rest of them to agree/disagree. I don't find those particularly sexy just sitting there, though. I guess it would depend on what the foot looked like in the shoe, seeing as how they're mesh. I know I'd like them more, from a viewers asthetic pov - not on my feet lol , if they were black. Also, I bet they won just because they're all sparkly and shit. hmph!

I liked the Valentino on the linked page. All the others are just so-so. But even if I could afford to buy them, I wouldn't spend $1195 on a freakin pair of shoes I'd probably wear twice.

Those would have been my choice as well.

Bah! The winning pair is just expensive and shiny. I like 'em, but they're not that sexy. hmph!

I actually love these Jimmy Choo's. redface lol

Hmm. I might like these, too. They look a bit like a very modern Victorian boot. I think I'd like them more with an enclosed front, and maybe a half inch less heel.

I love the heel. Won't the front make it look like your feet have teeth?

To me, they look more like flames than teeth. shrug

The winners are very pretty but not something I would wear. The Fendi Vertigos are much sexier to me and I would totally wear them.

I watch a lot of horror movies. I think they'd be good to attend the premier of Shark Week.


It's not to say I don't think they're not pretty...in a toothy flame-y kind of way.

I like the black pair better than the winners, too. But I'm not generally a fan of heels that make women look like they're going to fall down. lol Those are a little too tall for my tastes. I do love the zipper in the back, though. That's why I like those Jimmy Choo's, too.

I love those Loubou's!! One of my co-workers wore them to a function, they're stunning on.

Love the Fendi's and the Brian Atwood's but the rest of the selections? confuse A couple of them look like something my grandmom would wear!

Some of his stuff is out there but very cool IMO.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE (of course as an artist I might be partial) his Keith Haring booties.

[img:$uid]http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i9/jgascot/nk.jpg[/img:$uid]

I actually like all 3 except the bottom right. It's a high heel why would you make it look like a flat sandal with shields? hmph!

Love this too:

Graycap posted a pair. :thumbup: lol

Love Haring, hate those shoes. disbelief (You can throw stuff at me if you like... just no shoes! lol ) I like plain shoes. No "stuff" on them or protruding off of them. Something simple that excentuates the foot/calf.

I'm sorry, but I hope you're not into those. Tacky. I might run away from a man wearing boots like those.

Those booties are hot. I don't care what you or anyone else says. With some black leggings and maybe something short (mid thigh or so) and maybe even polka dotted up top for the hell of it. nana
