# Hot Colors for Haute Spring Shoes Pink, Red, and Orange Showoffs in Paris By Katie Cordrey | Published 2009-02-11 | Luxury Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hot-colors-for-haute-spring-shoes-pink-red-and-orange-showoffs-in-paris References: [shoes.about](http://shoes.about.com/od/womens_shoes/tp/spring_shoe_trends.htm) & [millionlooks](http://www.millionlooks.com/footwear/spring-summer-2009-shoe-trends-for-women/) Spring footwear includes hot-hues and [high heels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vida-collection). Several gorgeous styles were shown off at the Paris Spring Show. Shine also seems to be big. Put a little kick in that shoe-glow with perfect plastics or shimmering satin. [Dior](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/htown) and Galliano seem to be in competition over who can come up with the most inventive heel style. Dior’s resemble ribbon candy, but Galliano’s done something more akin to the business end of a golf club. I’m partial to the [platforms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ugg-goldenrise) and the slightly conservative pink ankle-tied heels from Jean Paul Gaultier. I’d wear them with a pair of fitted black capris. So what if I’m not a fashionista? I still like those shoes! ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.2/10 - Popularity: 71% | Activity: 18% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Luxury](https://www.trendhunter.com/luxury) > [Luxury Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/luxuryfashion) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Hot Colors for Spring Footwear:** Opportunity for shoe manufacturers to create innovative designs using vibrant and eye-catching colors. - **Inventive Heel Styles:** Chance for fashion brands to create unique and creative heel designs that stand out in the market. - **Shine and Shimmering Materials:** Potential for shoe companies to experiment with glossy plastics and shimmering satin to add a touch of glamour to their shoe collections. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Fashion Footwear:** Fashion shoe brands can offer trendy and stylish footwear options for the spring season. - **Fashion Design:** Opportunity for designers to create new and inventive heel styles that push the boundaries of traditional shoe designs. - **Material Manufacturing:** Industry that supplies glossy plastics and shimmering satin materials for shoes can capitalize on the demand for shiny and glamorous footwear. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Boldly Patterned Colorful Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/salomon-sr811-platform.md) - [Textured Floral Design Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oasis-society.md) - [Beweled Fashion Forward Clogs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/simone-rocha-2.md) - [Sophisticated Nude Heel Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nudes-capsule.md) - [Dynamic Ultra-High Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/platform-sneaker-1.md) - [Silver Polka Dot Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/papergirl-paris-and-beams.md) - [Chic Satin Pink Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/satin-pink.md) - [Cartoon-Honoring High Heels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hello-kitty-heel.md) - [Modern Shoe Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sergio-rossi.md)
