As vibrant and [full of flowers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flowers-of-yves-saint-laurent) as any Frida-influenced photoshoot, this one is nevertheless loosely based. The fashion itself has a a bit of a Spanish flair thanks to the abundant use of lace, but other than that the [feminine looks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/femininity-in-bloom) are very urban and modern. Not to mention that the [hairstyles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/djerf-avenue-beauty) don't revolve around Frida's signature braided crown. Shot by photographer Fredrik Wannerstedt with prop styling by Anton Thorsson, the editorial starring Asa Engstrom for DV Mode appears in the magazine's latest issue. Styled by Mona Norremo, the brunette beauty's elegant ensembles were perfected by makeup artist Sandra Öjeland. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.1/10 - Popularity: 94% | Activity: 81% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: 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 - **Frida Kahlo Inspired Fashion:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create a clothing line that combines Frida Kahlo's iconic style with modern urban aesthetics. - **Spanish Flair in Fashion:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Design a collection that incorporates Spanish elements such as lace and bold colors into contemporary fashion trends. - **Non-traditional Hairstyles:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop innovative hair styling techniques that challenge traditional norms, moving away from signature braided crowns. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion Retail:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Introduce Frida Kahlo-inspired fashion collections to retail stores and online platforms. - **Fashion Photography:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Experiment with unique prop styling and locations to create captivating editorials inspired by iconic artists like Frida Kahlo. - **Makeup and Beauty:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop new makeup techniques and products that can recreate the artistic and vibrant looks inspired by Frida Kahlo. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Mexican-Painter-Inspired Fragrances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frida-kahlo-eau.md) - [Handcrafted Flower Crown Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/handcrafted-flower-crown.md) - [Mexican Artist-Honoring Cannabis Brands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alas-pa-volar.md) - [Stunning Dried Flower Arrangements](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/east-olivia.md) - [Floral-Imbued Fashion Exhibits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flowers-of-yves-saint-laurent.md) - [Dreamy Apparel Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frankies-bikinis-keepsakes-collection.md) - [Flower-Inspired Vibrant Rugs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/espressionismo-floreale.md) - [Offbeat Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/asos-inspired-by.md) - [Inclusive Hair-Styling Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/myhairamimodo.md)
