A court has ruled that Belgian anti-Islam campaigners must remove all posters featuring the stilettos of luxury French footwear designer Christian Louboutin.

The poster, promoted by the campaign group Women against Islamisation, showed the legs of Anke Van dermeersch, a former Miss Belgium and now a politician for the far-right Vlaams Belang (Flemish Interest).

It showed her wearing Louboutin's trademark red-soled heels, and included a scale of what it said was Islam's view of a woman according to the length of her skirt.

The scale went from from "sharia conform" at floor level, to "whore" just above the knee and "stoning" at the top of the thigh.

Louboutin said it had not authorised the use of its shoes in the campaign and that their inclusion damaged its image.

A court in Antwerp ruled in the company's favour, saying Women against Islamisation must remove all its posters within 24 hours.

Vlaams Belang's parliamentary leader Filip De Winter promptly tweeted a revised poster showing the same woman lying down, with seemingly identical shoes, except now with yellow soles rather than Louboutin's famous red.

Yellow is the colour of Dutch-speaking Flanders, which Vlaams Belang wants to split from Belgium.

In polls released on Friday, Vlaams Belang was backed by around 10 per cent of Flemish voters.
