Shoe Deja Vu: The Christian Louboutin ‘Hot Chick’ dupe from the high street

Office’s Christian Louboutin ‘Hot Chick’ dupe, £72

I hesitate to describe these shoes as a Christian Louboutin ‘Hot Chick’ dupe, because when you look at the shoes above, and then look at the shoes below…

The original Christian Louboutin Hot Chick pumps

Well, it’s just no contest, is it? No one’s ever going to mistake the Office version for the Louboutin version, which is just so damn gorgeous that it’s little wonder it’s still one of the most popular shoes on the site, even although it’s almost a year since I first featured it. I think these will probably earn their place in the Louboutin Hall of Fame one day, so it’s ALSO little wonder that a high street brand like Office would choose to draw inspiration from the style.

Inspiration is definitely what this is, too – as I said, no one’s ever going to get the two shoes mixed up, so the Office version mirrors the Louboutin shape without making an exact copy of it. (I’m actually quite disappointed, to be honest – if these looked exactly like the Louboutins, I’d probably have ordered a pair by now, even although I can’t even afford Office prices at the moment, let alone Louboutin!)

These are available in red and black, and have a 12cm heel, which is about as high as you tend to get on the high street, although still not as high as the heels on the originals. They’re probably a bit easier to walk in, though, so there is that…) It’s never fair to put a much cheaper shoe next to a Louboutin, of course, because in this case at least, the shoes definitely look much cheaper, but that could be down to the photography, too, so if you love Hot Chick, but never got a chance to own a pair, these could be worth checking out in person.
