Despite 2009 being a horrific year for retail, Christian Louboutin maintains his business grew by double digits. This could be due to the fact that he rarely gives shoes away and that only a limited number of celebrities receive a discount. Or, it could be due to his faithful and best customer, who happens to be — drum roll please — American romance novelist Danielle Steel. Louboutin told Vanity Fair that the author is a "super" customer. "She comes to Paris and she literally buys everything. Then she flies back to New York, says, 'I'm a little disappointed, there's nothing in store,' and walks out with 80 pairs." Ah, now that's amore.
