Made by Charlotte Olympia, the pumps feature Princess Aurora's face, they are pointy-toed and are a burnt-orange color. Charlotte Olympia is known for her [whimsical footwear designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hello-kitty-heel), but the designer literally stepped up her label's reputation with these [Disney-inspired shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/viktorrolf-x-disney). She is reeling in a whole new demographic of customers now from pre-teens to adult Disney-enthusiasts. Unfortunately, it's reported that the cute shoes are currently sold out everywhere. Hopefully they get restocked in time for the film's premiere so die-hards can pick up a pair to wear to the theater. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.4/10 - Popularity: 46% | Activity: 48% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/shoes) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Princess-inspired Footwear:** The popularity of Charlotte Olympia's Sleeping Beauty Pump highlights a growing trend of Disney-inspired footwear for both younger and older demographics. - **Whimsical Designer Collaborations:** The success of the Charlotte Olympia and Disney collaboration opens up opportunities for other designers to collaborate with popular entertainment brands, creating unique and playful products. - **Celebrity Endorsements in Fashion:** Elle Fanning's endorsement of the Sleeping Beauty Pump showcases the influence of celebrities in driving fashion trends and increasing brand awareness. ### Where This Applies - **Fashion and Apparel:** The success of the Sleeping Beauty Pump demonstrates the potential for the fashion industry to tap into nostalgic and pop culture themes to attract new customers. - **Entertainment and Media:** The collaboration between Charlotte Olympia and Disney highlights the potential for entertainment and media companies to expand their brand reach through unique and fashionable collaborations. - **Retail and E-commerce:** The increased demand for the Sleeping Beauty Pump underscores the potential opportunities for retailers and e-commerce platforms to capitalize on popular culture trends and limited-edition collaborations. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Cinematic Celebration Dolls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/disney-sleeping-beauty-aurora-doll.md) - [Ultra-Luxurious Crystal Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jimmy-choo-crystal-slipper.md) - [Celebrity-Inspired Cartoon Heels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/katy-perry-1.md) - [Couture Collector Dolls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/viktorrolf-x-disney.md) - [Villainous Bridal Gowns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/allure-bridals-disney-bridal-gowns.md) - [Cartoon-Honoring High Heels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hello-kitty-heel.md) - [Fairytale-Inspired Fragrances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-enchanting-collection.md) - [Princess-Themed Lip Glosses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultra-glossy-lip.md) - [Soft-Colored Disney Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cinderella-capsule.md)
