Instead of simple dresses and suits, it showcases a range of [chic Gothic outfits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/khaotique-noir) that are fit for [stylish widows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/death-wishes-jacket). The Bambi Magazine XVII Issue photoshoot was shot on location at a cemetery by photographer Jus Vun. It stars IMG Paris model Marije alongside L’Homme de Nathalie male model Kosta. They were both clad in [monochromatic wardrobes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jiyongkim-fw25) by stylist Carmen Weiss. Solemn yet stylish, the looks could easily be worn on any other given day without being inappropriate. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.2/10 - Popularity: 75% | Activity: 42% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% 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 ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Funeral Fashion:** Opportunities for innovative fashion designers to design chic Gothic outfits suitable for solemn occasions like funerals. - **Alternative Wardrobes:** Design opportunities to create statement outfits for people to express their individuality and personality even at solemn occasions. - **Editorial Photoshoots:** Potential for creative and unconventional photoshoots with themes revolving around unique and unconventional occasions. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Fashion:** Designers can explore new avenues and promote alternative wardrobes that help people express themselves even at solemn occasions. - **Photography:** Opportunities for photographers to experiment with unconventional and unique themes to create editorial photoshoots that showcase fashion and lifestyle. - **Funeral Services:** Potential for funeral service providers to offer alternative options to traditional funerals, allowing people to personalize their send-offs through fashion choices. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Refined Vintage Militaristic Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/studio-nicholson-fw25.md) - [Statement-Making Fall Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-fall-2025.md) - [Experimental Fall Wardrobe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/khaotique-noir.md) - [Local Hotspot Fashion Shoots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heartbeat-campaign.md) - [Monochrome Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jiyongkim-fw25.md) - [Modern Minimalist Apparel Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-latest-summer-edit.md) - [Star-Studded Fashion Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/winter-2025-campaign.md) - [Stealthy Modern Monochromatic Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/black-tag-collection.md) - [Dreamy Apparel Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frankies-bikinis-keepsakes-collection.md)
