Self-Loving Photoshoots

Beyonce Kisses Herself in Giant Magazine

— December 12, 2008 — Celebs
Beyonce kisses herself (or maybe her alter ego Sasha Fierce) in the December 2008 / January 2009 issue of Giant Magazine.

Perhaps Beyonce has been to the Self Kiss exhibit by Pupsam that Trend Hunter reported about last year.

In addition to self-kissing, Beyonce flaunts her cyborg fashion with her famous titanium glove and dramatic makeup.

Implications - People are constantly attempting to perfect themselves in order to feel better for themselves. By becoming self-loving, they will be able to achieve a desired confidence. Editorials that showcase this idea appeal to this target, as they illuminate particular celebrities, who have been targeted for being imperfect, being self-loving. Perhaps consumers of the future will be more confident and less swayed by unrealistic images of celebrities and models.
Trend Themes
1. Self-loving Editorials - Editorials that showcase self-love will become more popular and may help consumers become more confident and less swayed by unrealistic images of celebrities and models.
2. Cyborg Fashion - Fashion that incorporates cyborg elements, such as Beyonce's titanium glove, will become more popular in the coming years.
3. Self Kiss Exhibits - Art exhibits or installations that promote self-love, like the Self Kiss exhibit by Pupsam, will become more popular as people seek to improve their confidence.
Industry Implications
1. Fashion - Fashion brands can explore incorporating cyborg elements in their product designs to appeal to consumers interested in self-expression and futuristic styles.
2. Art - Art galleries can create exhibits that promote self-love, possibly partnering with brands or influencers to attract younger audiences interested in self-improvement and personal development.
3. Media and Publishing - Media brands can produce editorials that showcase self-love and body positivity, resonating with consumers seeking authentic representation of diverse body types and self-expression.
