The illuminating and frankly mind-blowing photo shoot creates [fantastical dresses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/la-robe-ketchup) out of nothing by [light trails captured via long exposure](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shapes-of-light). Atton Conrad acheived the intoxicating effect by placing models in a dark room surrounded by [light brushes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculptural-lighting-design). Once the brushes were set in motion, Conrad would remotely trigger the long exposure shot. The surreal effects achieved in the photos simply speak for themselves. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.8/10 - Popularity: 72% | Activity: 64% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/stylephotography) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Light Trail Photography:** Opportunity to incorporate light trail photography techniques into fashion shoots for unique and eye-catching visuals. - **Long Exposure Photography:** Disruptive potential in using long exposure techniques to capture artistic and imaginative concepts in various industries. - **Fantastical Visual Effects:** Innovation opportunities to create surreal and captivating visuals through the use of creative light and motion effects. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion Photography:** Exploring the use of light trail photography to create avant-garde fashion editorials and runway visuals. - **Advertising and Marketing:** Harnessing long exposure photography to create visually striking ads and campaigns that capture attention and leave a lasting impression on viewers. - **Event Photography:** Utilizing light trail photography techniques to capture dynamic and immersive images at concerts, festivals, and other live events. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [AI-Inspired Fantastical Bridal Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fantastical-bridal-collection.md) - [Dynamic Shape-Shifting Dresses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/primrose-dress.md) - [Ethereal Light Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/peter-kovacsy.md) - [Illuminated Curtained Light Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/making-the-invisible-visible.md) - [Artful Suspended Fashion Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/invisible-figures.md) - [Festive Light Painting Techniques](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/light-painting-1.md) - [Physics-Based Artful Light Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aura-collection-1.md) - [Creative Lighting Solutions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/drape-light.md) - [Luxury Resort Apparel Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteurs-resort-2025-collection.md)
