[Reformation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reformation-fall-dresses) teamed up with vintage sourcer Julia Rabinowitsch, known as The Millennial Decorator, to create the Julia Tassel Pump—a holiday-ready shoe that channels the thrill of finding a perfect vintage pair. The design features a pointed toe, lace-up ties around the ankle, and mini tassels that add a festive touch without going overboard. Available in three versatile options—black satin, ruby croc, and tan haircalf—the pump combines party-season appeal with everyday wearability, making it an easy addition to both understated and show-stopping holiday looks.

The shoe is crafted with [sustainable materials](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reformation-cardigan), including Naia Renew Satin and responsibly sourced, traceable leather, and is fully recyclable through Reformation's RefRecycling program. Rabinowitsch's years of sourcing experience informed the design, which captures the one-of-a-kind quality serious shoe collectors look for in vintage finds. The Julia Tassel Pump retails for $428 CAD and is available online now, launching just in time for [holiday party season](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/roger-vivier-holiday-2025).
