Chinese singer and actor Karry Wang (also known as Wang Junkai) has been named Christian Louboutin’s first China ambassador.
Mr Wang has often been dressed in the Parisian shoes and leathergoods brand’s wares for significant moments in his career, including on the cover of several magazines, his first solo concert performance and at major awards ceremonies.
Commenting on the appointment, brand founder and designer Mr Louboutin said: “Being fun, curious, ambitious and committed to social responsibilities, Karry with his fresh energy undoubtedly personifies what I’d like Christian Louboutin to be for the upcoming years.”
Mr Wang himself added: “I’m very thrilled to join the Christian Louboutin family. Christian Louboutin represents the quintessence of French elegance with a unique sense of creativity and an exceptional savoir-faire.”
The 21-year-old Mr Wang has been a United Nations national goodwill ambassador since 2018 and established his own charity, Kindle Blue Fund, in 2017.
