Christian Louboutin on Design, Inspiration and Portugal
Manage episode 410702905 series 3564874
On this episode of Passport to Everywhere, Melissa sits down with renowned shoe designer Christian Louboutin to discuss his latest venture: a boutique hotel in the scenic hills of Portugal. Christian is widely recognized in the fashion industry for his glamorous footwear line featuring coveted red-bottom shoes. He has now, however, ventured into the world of hospitality with his latest project, the Vermelho Hotel.
Vermelho opened in April of 2023 and is located in Melides, a quaint fishing village in Portugal. In this episode, Christian shares his journey of opening Vermelho (it was originally going to be only a restaurant) and why he fashioned the property to feel more like a home than a hotel. He also dives into the beauty of Portugal and what motivates his nomadic lifestyle creating homes in different parts of the world. Melissa also reveals her favorite ways for mastering jet lag while traveling in this week’s Indagare Insight.
