Another one of the most famous designers nowadays is Donatella Versace - no doubt, she has a good eye for sometimes outrageous choices, that never go unnoticed.

If someone's designs are worn by pop stars and royalty - well, they must be doing a great job!

While I was reading Christian Louboutin's story, I stumbled upon something that I found very interesting: when he was a kid, he always felt like an outsider in his French family, because he didn't look like his parents, or the rest of his siblings, his skin was much darker. He started making up a story is his head, that he was Egyptian, because he was very interested in the culture - turns out his mom, Irene, had a secret affair with an Egyptian man, so his biological father was, in fact, from there!
