Carla Christian Louboutin has been in New York for several weeks to oversee the opening, joined intermittently by other family members. The Christian Louboutins do everything as a family.

The third generation is now involved in the company, a $350-million retail and wholesale operation with a store on the Via Borgognona in Rome and franchised boutiques around the world.
