The Reverso gets Christian Louboutin’s magic touch

The Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso makes a toast to its 85th anniversary this year. In celebration of this milestone, the iconic model gets dressed in an array of festive garments by none other than renowned designer Christian Louboutin. While the luxury Swiss watchmaker stands on a high pedestal in the watchmaking world, Louboutin’s signature red soles have been a favourite on many a red carpet and runways. On this rare and most certainly special occasion, the two Maisons cross paths in a collaboration founded on their shared taste for fashioning materials, constant attention to detail, and a quest for perfect balance.

 

Known for its unique reversible design and exquisite Art Deco lines, the Reverso serves as a wonderful canvas for Christian Louboutin to play with. He chose to unleash his instinctive artistic flair on the Reverso Classic Duetto, available in two sizes. Inspired by his travels and shoe collections, he reimagined the iconic watch in four stunning variations, all while respecting its classical identity. Find out more about each design and the inspiration behind them below:
