In one photo, the model lays down in the sand with her gold bangles on and diamond earrings glistening in the sun. Every outfit is different as she sports a jean jacket and shorts in one image and a patterned blouse in the next. The photos use a sepia-like tone in order to bring out the sunlight and to compliment the fashions. A black hat is also worn in order to give the photographs more of a country vibe although the bold, chunky jewelry juxtaposes this. Overall Brian Cowen highlights the location and the fashion with success as the confident blonde model struts her stuff around the dunes no problem. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.8/10 - Popularity: 71% | Activity: 35% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Environmental Fashion Photography:** Opportunity for fashion brands to showcase their products in natural environments to capitalize on increasing consumer demand for sustainable and eco-friendly fashion. - **Lifestyle Photography:** Increasing trend in photography to capture lifestyle images featuring people and places in everyday settings, opening opportunities for photographers to expand their portfolios and businesses. - **Vintage-style Photography:** Gaining popularity in fashion photography to create a nostalgic and timeless aesthetic, providing opportunities for photographers to offer unique and sought-after services. ### Where This Applies - **Fashion Industry:** Opportunity for fashion brands to collaborate with photographers for eco-friendly outdoor photoshoots that align with values of sustainability. - **Photography Industry:** Opportunities for photographers to offer lifestyle photography services that capture the essence of people, places, and products in a realistic and relatable way. - **Jewelry Industry:** Opportunity for jewelry brands to showcase their products in outdoor photoshoots that capture the beauty of natural environments and promote the synergy between fashion and nature. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Island-Inspired Summer Wear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sel-de-mer.md) - [Sun-Soaked Resort Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/golden-hour-getaway-collection.md) - [Modern Minimalist Apparel Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-latest-summer-edit.md) - [Print-Focused Swim Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fioretta.md) - [Dreamy Apparel Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frankies-bikinis-keepsakes-collection.md) - [Sustainable Statement Swimwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/animalia.md) - [Modern Vacation Pieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/resort-wear-collection.md) - [Versatile Sleek Swimwear Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dandy-del-mar.md) - [Local Hotspot Fashion Shoots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heartbeat-campaign.md)
