Mattel Inc. is putting on a runway show during New York Fashion Week in February, and Christian Louboutin will be one of 50 "as-yet-undisclosed" designers contributing to the event. WWD reports "Christian Louboutin is designing pumps in iconic Barbie Pantone 219 Pink...each of the 50 models will be wearing the pink Louboutins at the show." Louboutin told the trade: "I guess I always had a little 'girlie side' who liked Barbie...Barbie needs to wear great shoes because every girl needs to wear great shoes."
