Under his own label, Ndeur, however, he designs more than just casual shoes. Women won't feel bored with their shoe selection and won't have to worry about colour-coordinating their footwear -- they come in such an array of colours that they can be matched with just about anything. "The line ranges from soaring pumps to old-school high-tops and are fashioned using a canvas of [vintage leather footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/1460-8eyelet-boot), on which he doodles street-art-inspired scenes with oil-based paints." Missiaen has his entire brand available on MySpace under the name Ndeurr. What an intelligent and creative way to showcase artistic talent. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.3/10 - Popularity: 98% | Activity: 82% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hip Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/hipfashion) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Art-inspired Sneaker Collections:** Opportunity for artists to collaborate with major shoe brands and create unique, limited-edition footwear for consumers. - **Colorful & Creative Footwear:** Demand for unique and bold footwear designs that stray from traditional styles, creating opportunity for independent shoe designers. - **Personalized & Customizable Shoes:** Growing popularity of tailored shoes that allow consumers to choose the colors, designs and patterns of their footwear, leading to potential for online customization platforms. ### Where This Applies - **Fashion & Apparel:** Shoe brands can differentiate themselves by producing creative and customizable footwear as a way to appeal to consumers looking for unique styles. - **Art & Design:** Opportunity for artists to collaborate with shoe brands and create unique, limited-edition footwear designs for consumers, opening a new revenue stream. - **E-commerce:** Growing interest in personalized and customizable shoes paves the way for online platforms that allow consumers to design and purchase their own unique footwear. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Makeup Artist-Crafted Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-max-dn-silhouette.md) - [Street Art-Adorned Perforated Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/futura-laboratories-2.md) - [Artistic Naturally Dyed Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/3sixteen-x-saucony-peregrine-15-gesso.md) - [Artist-Backed Breakdancing Sneaker](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jam-sneaker.md) - [Fine Art-Inspired Sneaker Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/otw-by-vans-line.md) - [Artistic Sneaker Collaborations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skechers-x-vexx.md) - [Graffiti Artist-Made Rare Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stash-1.md) - [Urban Sneaker-Inspired Exhibits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/museum-of-graffiti1.md) - [Plush Textural Artful Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jordan-3.md)
