# Sultry Sorbet Heels These Ice Cream Shoes are a Delicious Treat on a Hot Day By Sarah St.Jules | Published 2013-08-13 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ice-cream-shoes References: [inewidea](http://www.inewidea.com/2013/04/11/54128.html) & [laughingsquid](http://laughingsquid.com/ice-cream-cone-high-heels-designed-by-karl-lagerfeld-for-brazilian-plastic-shoe-brand-melissa/) Most people love a cold treat on a hot day, and if you were to wear ice cream shoes, you could enjoy the cone worry free. Fashion superstar Karl Lagerfeld teamed up with the brand [Melissa](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/royal-loafer) in order to create these kicks. These shoes are an adorable take on the traditional kick. Other than the cone, this is a standard pump, with a bit of a platform at the toe. What makes this shoe different is the ice cream that is attached to it. Instead of having an exposed heel like in normal kicks, there is an [ice cream cone](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mojoz-gummicone) on the back of the shoe. There is a light green or a pink sparkly flavor available. These ice cream shoes may be [a strange heel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/platformstyle-sandals), but they would definitely make a statement. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.5/10 - Popularity: 94% | Activity: 92% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, 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 - **Ice Cream Fashion:** Opportunity to create innovative and playful designs incorporating ice cream elements in fashion. - **Collaborative Brand Partnerships:** Collaborations between fashion superstars and brands to create unique and eye-catching products. - **Statement Accessories:** Increasing popularity of accessories that make a bold and unique fashion statement. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion:** Fashion industry can explore new designs and collaborations to cater to customers seeking unconventional and playful styles. - **Footwear:** Opportunity for footwear brands to experiment with creative designs and collaborations, incorporating unconventional elements like ice cream. - **Accessories:** Growing demand for statement accessories opens up possibilities for creating unique and attention-grabbing products like ice cream shoes. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Bubblegum-Scented Jelly-Like Loafers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/royal-loafer.md) - [Chic Stiletto-Inspired Cookies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/biscuiteers-and-manolo-blahnik.md) - [Dessert-Inspired Tonal Sneaker Packs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/banana-split-pack.md) - [Dessert-Inspired Collaborative Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sweetness-of-kin.md) - [Pastel-Colored Valentine’s Day Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heydude-x-sweethearts-collection.md) - [Ice Cream-Resembling Lamps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soft-serve-lamp.md) - [Cartoon-Honoring High Heels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hello-kitty-heel.md) - [Collaborative Ice Cream Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iconic-ice-cream.md) - [CPG-Inspired Ice Creams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-ice-cream-project-anya-hindmarch.md)
