What is the Woodland Styling trend?
Woodland Styling: As people move to the city, nature--especially the deep forest--holds more appeal as it becomes a more foreign place. Advertisers and fashion designers are capitalizing on this intrigue by using the forest as a backdrop to produce photoshoots, editorials and campaigns with a woodland theme.
