# Tribal Tribute Captures Charles Freger Brings Ancient Tribes Back to Life in His Photo Series By Kyle Towers | Published 2013-03-21 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ancient-tribes References: [ufunk.net](http://www.ufunk.net/photos/wilder-mann-charles-freger/) & [charlesfreger](http://www.charlesfreger.com/) Charles Fréger has brought the essence of ancient tribes to the future to give us a glimpse into their unique way of life. He has captured a total of 19 European countries in this remarkable series. What is probably the most fascinating is how eclectic, yet similar these wild headdresses and clothing pieces are. These ancient tribes styles either show how crazy or how brilliant we were as a people back in the day. While functional for keeping oneself warm, they can't be to great for performing daily activities in -- I'm sure sporting a pair of antlers on the head couldn't be too good for one's neck and posture, either. I have to hand it to them, though: these costumes would surely scare off predators. I would be terrified if someone came charging at me in one of those! ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.3/10 - Popularity: 37% | Activity: 24% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Life](https://www.trendhunter.com/life) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Ancient Tribes Fashion:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Creating modern, functional versions of ancient tribe clothing and headdresses. - **Historical Reenactment:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Developing immersive experiences and events that allow people to experience the culture and traditions of ancient tribes. - **Cultural Preservation:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Utilizing advanced digital technologies to digitally preserve and document ancient tribes' traditions and artifacts. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion and Apparel:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Collaborating with designers to incorporate elements of ancient tribe fashion into modern clothing collections. - **Tourism and Hospitality:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Creating unique travel experiences that allow tourists to interact with authentic ancient tribe communities. - **Technology and Digital Preservation:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Developing advanced digitization tools and techniques for preserving and showcasing ancient tribe heritage and artifacts. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Wild Animal-Decorated Gowns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/schiaparelli-lion-head.md) - [Primal-Themed Bronze Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-return.md) - [Tribal Art-Inspired Bracelets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bharata.md) - [Indigenous Form Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gabriel-chaile.md) - [Untamed Nature-Inspired Jewelry Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/untamed-nature.md) - [Identity-Exploring Clothing](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shapes-we-take.md) - [Artful Suspended Fashion Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/invisible-figures.md) - [Travel-Inspired Canvas Paintings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-passport-series.md) - [Culturally Influenced Summer Garments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arcteryx-3.md)
