In an interview with WSJ magazine, Christian Louboutin addresses the ongoing battle with Yves Saint Laurent over the rights to his signature red sole. "Its my trademark," he says. For two months I said, 'Fix it,' and nothing happened. Then they tried to kill me by saying I can't own a color. But they own colors for their makeup and the red-and-green stripe for Gucci. It's very much a double standard." [Fashionologie]
