Christian Louboutin Denied Injunction Against Yves Saint Laurent Over Red Soled Shoes

This week marked the end to year another lawsuit between two heavy hitters, this time around between two fashion giants. You might recall that back in April, shoe designer Christian Louboutin took to court both Yves Saint Laurent and Brazilian label Carmen Steffens over their selling of shoes that featured red soles. Given that Louboutin’s major claim to fame were his own red soled product, which he had patented in the late 1990s, his company wanted singular ownership.
