Fearless Expression

Racy fashion demonstrates a shift toward more confident consumer interests

Implications - With sexual imagery constantly bombarding consumers through diverse media outlets, pressures concerning body image have become increasingly more prevalent. As consumers become more health-conscious and physically active, revealing fashion offers them a chance to showcase their new found confidence in life. This illustrates the increasing consumer demand for products that exude fearlessness.

Trend Themes

  1. Revealing Fashion — The increasing demand of revealing fashion demonstrates a shift toward more confident consumer interests.
  2. Sex-appeal Editorials — The use of sex-appeal coupled with high fashion in editorials can create a visually striking and ultra-chic glamour.
  3. Sultry Office Wear — Business professionals can adopt a sexy secretary or femme fatale personality at work which can potentially raise eyebrows amidst traditional office wear.

Industry Implications

  1. Fashion Industry — The fashion industry can capitalize on the increasing demand for revealing and sultry fashion trends by expanding their line of daring and sexy apparel.
  2. Photography Industry — Photographers can take inspiration from using sex-appeal in high-fashion photography, as it can produce visually stunning and boundary-pushing photographs.
  3. Beauty Industry — The use of big hair and full makeup in photo editorials can potentially influence the beauty industry to expand their line of beauty products into creating bold and sultry looks.
