19th Century Footwear Revivals

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Matching Mother-Daughter Spats from Maide Munchen

— December 31, 2008 — Fashion
Yes, you are not seeing things, these are spats. Not that we haven’t trended spats before, but these are actually wearable, and some are indeed splendid. The work of a German designer, Maide Munchen’s creations have quite a legion of fans, not least among them, even Karl Lagerfeld who has featured her works in recent a German Vogue edition. Maide’s slogan is “Good Mood Fashion,” which is just what it is.

These accessories, seen in images from Trend de la Creme, were last popular in the late 19th century, and the modern versions are recreated using materials from 1900 to 1930. Although I didn’t think this was a trend that would continue, now that Mum and toddler can wear matching spats, they might just be onto something!
Trend Themes
1. Revival of 19th Century Footwear - The resurgence of wearable spats from the late 19th century presents opportunities for designers to incorporate vintage-inspired elements into modern fashion.
2. Mother-daughter Matching Fashion - The trend of matching spats for mothers and daughters opens up new possibilities for creating coordinated and stylish ensembles for families.
3. Use of Vintage Materials - The use of materials from 1900 to 1930 in the recreation of spats offers a unique selling point for brands and creates a niche in the fashion market.
Industry Implications
1. Fashion and Apparel - Fashion brands can capitalize on the revival of wearable spats and offer consumers a blend of vintage aesthetics with modern functionality.
2. Family and Parenting - The growing trend of mother-daughter matching fashion creates opportunities for retailers to market coordinated clothing and accessories for families.
3. Textiles and Fabrics - The demand for vintage materials to recreate spats opens up potential business opportunities for textile suppliers and manufacturers specializing in historical fabrics.
