But that right shade can be hard to find for people who have complexions that fall outside the mainstreamโ€”essentially, for those of us who aren't shades of pink or cream. Finding a nude lipstick or stocking for chocolate-complexioned women can be downright impossible.ย 

So it's huge that Christian Louboutin announced via Twitter on Tuesday that it's expanding its Nudes Collection to include two new shadesโ€”a โ€œporcelainโ€ Nude No. 1 and a Nude No. 7, described as deep chocolateโ€”for a total of seven nude shoe options for ladies. The shoes became available this week.ย

People are praising the brand for bolstering inclusive fashionโ€”which is a nice phrase, but it'll be wonderful when inclusive fashion is considered the norm.
