# Psychedelic Space Shoes UNIF's Hella Jelly Platforms are Inspired by Nostalgic 90s Styles By Jana Pijak | Published 2014-07-21 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/space-shoes References: [unifclothing](http://unifclothing.com/womens/hella-jelly-platforms) & [unifclothing](http://unifclothing.com/womens) Edgy label UNIF is known for reviving 90s era fashions and these psychedelic space shoes are no exception. The brand's Hella Jelly platform is a nostalgic style staple and is a nod to British pop group, the Spice Girls and [cinematic cult classic](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heydude-x-mean-girls) 'Clueless'. This eye-catching platform is a space shoe from one's childhood dreams. The [90s-inspired heel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/buzz-collection) is a comfortable statement piece that gives its wearer height and support. Available for $88, these fun shoes feature a sky-high wedge heel that measures 5" in the back and 3" at the front. These sandals feature a jelly upper construction with a side buckle closure and vegan leather foot bed that is cushioned and comfortable. Pair the psychedelic accessories with a white mini dress for a summer-ready day look or mix and match with a colored ensemble when heading to a concert or rave event. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.6/10 - Popularity: 76% | Activity: 84% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hip Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/hipfashion) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Reviving 90s Fashion:** There is an opportunity for brands to tap into the nostalgia of the 90s and bring back iconic styles. - **Psychedelic Fashion Accessories:** The popularity of psychedelic patterns and prints presents an opportunity for brands to create unique and eye-catching fashion accessories. - **Comfortable Statement Shoes:** There is a growing demand for statement shoes that offer both height and comfort, providing an opportunity for brands to innovate in this space. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion Retail:** Fashion retailers can capitalize on the trend of reviving 90s fashion by offering a wide range of nostalgic styles. - **Accessories Manufacturing:** The demand for psychedelic fashion accessories opens up opportunities for manufacturers to create unique and vibrant products. - **Shoe Manufacturing:** Shoe manufacturers can create innovative designs that combine height and comfort to cater to the growing market for statement shoes. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Dynamic Ultra-High Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/platform-sneaker-1.md) - [Bubblegum-Scented Jelly-Like Loafers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/royal-loafer.md) - [Unique Platform-Style Sandals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/platformstyle-sandals.md) - [Sleek T-Strap Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tkees-x-jcrew.md) - [Pool Slide Heeled Sandals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flipped-flop.md) - [Jellyfish-Inspired Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pharrell-williams-and-adidas-originals.md) - [Stylish Platform Clogs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bae-clog.md) - [Technical Mary Jane Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gellokros-asics-mary-janes.md) - [3-in-1 Platform Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ugg-goldenrise.md)
