Pine Cone Footwear

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Moonspoon Couture Borrows from Mother Nature

— August 25, 2010 — Eco
Several designers looked to the great outdoors for Fall/Winter 2010 collections and Moonspoon Saloon continue to for Spring/Summer 2011 collections. Striking a pitch perfect balance between the natural world and unruly combat, pine cones, twigs and woodland oddities are applied to sturdy boots, clumpy platforms and brothel creepers. Sprayed in an assortment of rainbow brights, from pink, to orange and cobalt blue, a casual DIY aesthetic pervades.

As the natural world collides with that which is man-made, fairy tales and enchanted fables are updated for a new generation of woodland nymphs -- albeit ones that come attired in billowing black leather and grunge-inspired layers.
Trend Themes
1. Outdoor-inspired Fashion - There is an opportunity for designers to continue incorporating elements from the natural world into fashion collections, creating a unique and visually striking aesthetic.
2. Diy-inspired Footwear - The casual DIY aesthetic seen in the colorful sprayed boots presents an opportunity for footwear brands to explore more customizable and creative designs.
3. Nature-inspired Color Palette - The rainbow brights used in the collection demonstrate the potential for incorporating vibrant colors inspired by nature into fashion, allowing for eye-catching and unconventional color combinations.
Industry Implications
1. Fashion Design - Fashion designers can explore the incorporation of natural elements and DIY aesthetics to create unique and innovative collections.
2. Footwear Manufacturing - Footwear manufacturers can capitalize on the popularity of nature-inspired designs and the DIY aesthetic by offering customizable and creatively designed footwear.
3. Color and Pigment Industry - The use of vibrant colors inspired by nature in fashion presents an opportunity for the color and pigment industry to develop and supply unique color palettes to designers and manufacturers.
