Christian Louboutin designed a whopping 250 custom shoes for Taylor Swifts Eras Tour .
The global superstar has worked with the luxury fashion house since her 2018 Reputation Tour, and the 60-year-old designer has revealed the mammoth undertaking to prepare so many individual styles.
Louboutin told Vogue: When working for performers, its better to start with a very large number of styles that will end up in a selection of designs which seem the best for the stage.
On designing footwear for performers, he said: Performing requires a lot of skill and concentration, so whatever costume or shoes youre wearing must not become a distraction. They need to disappear from your thoughts, allowing your voice to be the only instrument that matters, ensuring you give your best performance and convey emotion to the audience staring at you.

So, there might be more to come
Meanwhile, Taylor was recently praised for single-handedly catapulting the career of the designer wife of San Francisco 49ers fullback Kyle Juszczyk.
Kristin Juszczyks designs went viral after Brittany Mahomes, 28, the wife of Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, also 28, and the Grammy-winning star who is dating the Chiefs 34-year-old tight end Travis Kelce wore her sports jackets.
Appearing on the Today show, Kristin, 29, said: Brittany texted me and she said, Hey, can you send me a video of Taylors jacket? And I was like, Wait, is there a possibility the guys both wearing this? And she said, Yeah, were wearing it.
It was just such a pinch-me moment. I mean, it just was incredible.
Referring to Taylor, 34, she said: Shes single-handedly catapulted my career.
Ive been at this for years. When I saw her walk out in that jacket, it just like brought me to tears, she said.
