# Overly Accessorized Animals Animal Bling Photos Advertise Precious Gems in a Striking Way By Jason Soy | Published 2011-05-22 | Marketing Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/animal-bling-photos References: [blog.thaeger](http://blog.thaeger.com/2011/05/19/bling-bling-animals) & [torkilgudnason](http://torkilgudnason.com/#/torkil) Bling is not exclusive to hip-hop artists and retirees -- not with these animal bling photos, anyway. These pimped-out poodles and sultry diamond-clad snakes are the creative work of Danish photographer Torkil Gudnason. Dressing up household pets as well as [exotic foreign creatures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/big-bang-watch), this [jewelry-wearing animal shoot](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/animal-intelligence) is part of a new ad campaign to promote a line of [affluent accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/s-carter-designs). These photos are amazing considering it must have been quite a daunting task to get these animals into such specific poses. The puppies were probably easy enough to manage, but getting a pig to hang a necklace off its tail? That's talent. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.8/10 - Popularity: 53% | Activity: 23% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Marketing](https://www.trendhunter.com/marketing) > [Print](https://www.trendhunter.com/print) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Animal Bling:** The trend of adorning animals with precious gems and accessories for promotional purposes. - **Pimped-out Pets:** The trend of dressing up household animals in extravagant and luxurious attire. - **Exotic Jewelry Shoot:** The trend of featuring exotic foreign creatures wearing jewelry in advertising campaigns. ### Where This Applies - **Pet Accessories:** The industry that designs and produces luxurious and upscale accessories for pets. - **Fine Jewelry:** The industry that offers high-quality jewelry made of precious gems and metals. - **Animal Photography:** The industry that specializes in capturing captivating images of animals for various purposes, including advertising. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Ultra-Luxurious Pet Collars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pet-jewelry1.md) - [Charm-Adorned Dog Collars](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/charmadorned-dog-collar.md) - [Holographic Pet Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/holographic-pet-accessories.md) - [Luxury Gut Health Jewelry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pooch-pendant.md) - [Adorable Holiday Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/burberrys-holiday-campaign.md) - [Retro Athletic Pet Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pet-accessories-collection.md) - [Digital Pet Fashion Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pepa-paris.md) - [Posh Parisian Pooch Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/celine-dog-accessories.md) - [Bedazzled Anime Pendants](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/king-ice-x-pokmon.md)
