Christian Louboutin for Todd Lynn SS16





On Friday night in London, the men and women of Todd Lynn’s misanthropic world marched in custom made Christian Louboutin boots set to a rousing soundtrack from Glasgow three-piece Baby Strange. Christian created the original boot for Todd’s Spring/Summer 2016 collection at London Collections: Men. The collection is androgynous and both the male and female models wore a single unisex style, unnamed.

“I’m obsessed with the shoes,” said Todd of the unisex, multi-media biker boots. “They have a real continuity with the patchwork details of the collection.”
In a spectrum of neutrals and a metallic, each mid-calf boot features a piece of python with a stamped eyelet and ties that fasten around the back of the boot, achieving a pieced together aesthetic.

Departing from his usual black on black palette, Lynn opted to dress his tribe largely in white as well as a futuristic reversed silver jacquard. Topped with blunt banged, bleached blonde wigs, the Nordic-looking models appeared both androgynous and powerful. “Androgyny is what I always do. Boys and girls are becoming the same, that’s what’s happening in the world.”
