# Caged Bird Clothing Collections Ann Demeulemeester Spring 2010 Compares Models to Birds By Marissa Brassfield | Published 2009-10-04 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ann-demeulemeester-spring-2010 References: [style](http://www.style.com/fashionshows/review/S2010RTW-ADEMEULE) & [anndemeulemeester.be](http://www.anndemeulemeester.be/) The chained masks worn on the models in the [Ann Demeulemeester](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ann-demeulemeester-ss27) Spring 2010 Paris Fashion Week presentation combined with the [winged print](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kiss-boots) in her separates for a continuing theme Style.com's Nicole Phelps called a conceit between [man and nature](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/biomimicry-fashion). It's a compelling argument. After all, women are frequently referred to as 'birds,' and aren't runway shows similar to birdcages in the way that fashions (as well as the models wearing them) are scrutinized like parakeets on display? I love the themes presented in the Ann Demeulemeester Spring 2010 collection--almost as much as the fashions themselves. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.1/10 - Popularity: 72% | Activity: 42% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hip Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/hipfashion) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Masked Models:** Exploring the use of masks on fashion models to create a sense of intrigue and mystery. - **Nature-inspired Prints:** Incorporating prints inspired by birds and wings into fashion collections to create a connection between man and nature. - **Conceit Between Fashion and Nature:** Exploring the relationship between runway shows, fashion, and the concept of birdcages to present a unique perspective on the fashion industry. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion:** Opportunities to create innovative and avant-garde fashion designs by incorporating masked models and nature-inspired prints. - **Art:** Exploring the concept of conceit between man and nature through art installations and exhibitions. - **Event Planning:** Incorporating bird-themed elements and concepts into fashion events and runway shows to create a unique and memorable experience for attendees. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Whimsical Feminine Runway Shows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wild-rose-sparrow.md) - [Bird-Inspired Ethereal Cosmetic Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/majestic-feathers.md) - [Canary-Inspired Fashion Clutches](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/canary-clutch.md) - [Politically-Inspired Runway Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selkies-the-libertine-collection.md) - [Whimsical Spring Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/Anna-Suis-SpringSummer-2025.md) - [Pride-Honoring Bird Figurines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pride-birds.md) - [Biomimetic Fashion Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nonhuman-life.md) - [Intimate Spring Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/louis-vuitton-springsummer-2026.md) - [Wild Animal-Decorated Gowns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/schiaparelli-lion-head.md)
