This is one of the best Star Wars collaborations we’ve seen this year. The Walt Disney Company paired up with Christian Louboutin to create some really incredible shoes designed for several of the female characters in Star Wars. According to the press release, these are the styles:
* Rey (Daisy Ridley) is portrayed by an ankle-strap leather sandal inspired by the character’s costumes including the harnesses that strap her body, while translucent PVC reflects her Jedi powers and the Force she embodies. The style is finished with a blue strass heel evoking the color of her lightsaber.
* Vice Admiral Amilyn Holdo’s (Laura Dern’s) pumps are the natural extension of her costume, directly inspired by her draped burgundy cape and the strong, reserved and empowered character she portrays.
* Captain Phasma’s (Gwendoline Christie’s) shoe is evoked by the curves of her armor, represented by silver specchio leather yokes, reflecting her strict and authoritative character.
* Rose Tico (Kelly Marie Tran) is represented through a utilitarian sandal imagined by Christian Louboutin, depicting a technical, engineering-driven individual. The strong heel protects an inner stiletto, reflecting the shell safeguarding her resilient spirit.
Unfortunately, you can only buy these shoes via auction at charitybuzz.com/StarWars through December 20, so you’d better be prepared to open your wallet pretty wide if you want to score one. May the Force be with you.
