# Miniature Undergarment Sculptures The Bra Series by Holly Laws Explores Fragments of Bodies By Meghan Young | Published 2013-02-18 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bra-series-by-holly-laws References: [coolhunting](http://www.coolhunting.com/culture/bras-by-holly-laws.php) & [shopgreyarea](https://www.shopgreyarea.com/products/479-bras) The Bra Series by Holly Laws, an Assistant Professor at the [University of Central Arkansas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/techfit-control-bra), centers around [miniature sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculptural-jewelry-piece) of such [female undergarments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stripe-stare-bra-shop). Incredibly detailed despite their diminutive size, they could easily have been real bras that shrunk significantly in the drying machine. That, or fairies really do exist. Nevertheless, as adorable as these intimate sculptures are, they embody more than references to female forms and sensuality. With two new additions to the Bra Series by Holly Laws, which were released just in time to celebrate Valentine's Day, it is easy to envision different stories behind each creation. Laws reveals, "My early work focuses on miniature fragments of the human form evoking partial stories of lives forgotten." ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.6/10 - Popularity: 58% | Activity: 42% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Underwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/underwear) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Miniature Sculptures:** Opportunity for creating and selling miniature sculptures as collectible items. - **Exploring Fragments:** Opportunity to create art pieces that evoke partial stories and capture the imagination of viewers. - **Celebrating Valentine's Day:** Opportunity for artists to create themed artworks that align with special occasions. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Art:** Artists can explore the use of miniature sculptures and explore fragmented narratives. - **Collectibles:** Opportunity to create a line of collectible miniature sculptures inspired by undergarments. - **Holiday Retail:** Businesses can tap into the demand for themed art pieces during special occasions like Valentine's Day. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Bra-Preserving 3D-Printed Hangers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bras-up.md) - [Human Torso-Inspired Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lene-bdker.md) - [Sculptural Knitted Objects](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sculptural-knitted-objects.md) - [Sea-Inspired Mini Sculpture Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mini-sculptures.md) - [Human Embraced-Inspired Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wallmounted-sculpture.md) - [Liberating Lingerie Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zhilyova.md) - [Cancer-Symptom Detecting Bras](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stage-zero.md) - [Raunchy Anime-Inspired Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/manuela-soto-sosa.md) - [Love-Inspired Miniature Art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/love-in-a-bottle.md)
