Christian Louboutin Tribalou Handbag Collection.

Following on from the trends set on the catwalk by the likes of Valentino and Versace this season, of vibrant, block colours, and bright contrasts, Louboutin have announced a vividly coloured bag line-uo called "Tribalou".

The Collection contains at preset two pieces, with more expected to follow by the end of the season.  The Passage Mini features the tribal influence which gives the collection its name most strongly, with a Mayan theme in block colours.  Constructed from calf, with a detachable shoulder strap, and tassels, it costs £2,800.

Next up is the Aliosha, which has a more Native American theme.  This backpack again re-inforces the style credentials of the backpack in the modern era, in attractive and highly wearable shades, made from  suede, with leather accents, and costing £1,700.

As mentioned, these two pieces are available now, with, as is Louboutins tradition, moe to be released later, including shoes, and wearables.
