The juxtaposition of feminine, glamorous Swarovski crystals and iconic Dr. Martens motorcycle boots is enough to make me rethink my entire wish list. The Dr Martens x Swarovski Elements collection is truly a stroke of genius. Combining the two looks together is sure to satisfy everyone on your shopping list, from the girly girl to the edgy tomboy. It's always great to see iconic pieces revamped for an ultra cool and modern update, and this collection is no exception. It seems that the old adage "diamonds are a girl's best friend" is no longer applicable because crystal-covered boots might just take their place. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.9/10 - Popularity: 46% | Activity: 62% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/shoes) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Sparkling Motorcycle Boots:** The trend of adding crystals to rugged accessories and clothing creates opportunities for collaborations between high-end jewelry brands and established fashion companies. - **Feminine-edgy Mashups:** The trend of mixing traditionally feminine and masculine fashion elements offers opportunities for brands to cater to a wider range of customers. - **Luxury Revamps of Iconic Products:** The trend of refreshing classic products with luxury materials can be applied to a variety of industries, from fashion to furniture. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion:** Fashion brands can use the trend of mixing tough and delicate materials to appeal to customers who want to express both their feminine and edgy sides. - **Jewelry:** High-end jewelry brands can collaborate with fashion companies to create unique products that appeal to customers who want to incorporate luxury and sparkles into their everyday wardrobe. - **Furniture:** Companies can update classic furniture designs with luxurious materials to create revamped, high-end products that appeal to both established and new customers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [80s Metal-Band-Inspired Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dr-martens-x-metallica.md) - [Doll-Inspired Shoe Collabs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dr-martens-x-bratz.md) - [New Year-Inspired Rugged Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/year-of-the-dragon-collection-1.md) - [Bold Maximalist Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/exoshield-xx01.md) - [Limited-Edition Crystal Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stuart-weitzman-x-swarovski.md) - [Dynamic Gemstoned Hiking Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/advisory-board-crystals-1.md) - [Reimagined Legacy Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kiki-boot.md) - [Bold Sand-Colored Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/anistone-lo-suede-biker.md) - [Romanticized Shoe Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mademe-x-dr-martens-1461-quad-shoe.md)
