While these booties may take inspiration from a more conservative fashion era, the iconic design company has added its own contemporary flair. Something that would have been deemed inappropriate in an era regarded by its stifling and prudish ways. For instance, these leather boots combine two contrasting fabrics. A mix of black patent leather and [yellow suede](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/anatomic-slipon-suede-boots) make up the exterior of these Fendi spats. There is also a small detailing of white on the platform's face. Keeping in line with their Victorian inspiration, these boots feature a [wrap-around button detailing](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/john-fluevog) that will likely draw jealous stares. For those individuals who cannot bare to be separated from these shoes, all they need to do is make the $454 investment. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.7/10 - Popularity: 76% | Activity: 86% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## 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 - **Victorian-inspired Fashion:** Companies can look at Victorian fashion for inspiration and add a contemporary twist for a unique product. - **Contrasting Fabrics in Footwear:** Mixing different fabrics in shoes can create a bold and unique look for consumers looking for something different. - **Extravagant Footwear Accents:** Companies can add eye-catching details like the wrap-around button detailing on these Fendi spats to draw attention to their products. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion:** Fashion companies can take inspiration from different time periods for unique products and designs. - **Footwear:** Shoe companies can experiment with mixing different fabrics and adding unique accents to create stand-out products. - **Luxury Goods:** Luxury brands can create unique and extravagant products like these Fendi spats to appeal to consumers looking for high-end and exclusive items. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Spring-Ready Premium Fashion Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fendi-and-red-wing.md) - [Illusory Doll-Like Heels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/illusion-boots.md) - [Bird Feather-Inspired Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kiss-boots.md) - [Stiletto Knee-High Suede Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/anatomic-slipon-suede-boots.md) - [Sleek Western Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/naked-wolfes-stark-boot.md) - [Sleek Hybrid Boot Mules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yohji-yamamoto-2.md) - [Vibrant Luxurious Panelling Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/yellow-orbit.md) - [Vintage-Inspired Holiday Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/julia-tassel-pump.md) - [Luxury Collaborative Fuzzy Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fur-crocs.md)
