# Cat-Inspired Fashion Collections Wildfang's Latest Capsule is a Tribute to Feline Companions By Kalin Ned | Published 2018-08-03 | Pop Culture Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/catinspired-fashion References: [wildfang](https://www.wildfang.com/custom/cats.html) For International Cat Day — which is coming up on August 8th, contemporary label Wildfang releases a not-so-cheerful cat-inspired fashion collection. The new additions feature two tees, a snapback hat, a button-up short-sleeve and a tote. Albeit the silhouettes of the apparel are basic, the charm of the cat-inspired fashion collection stems from the humorous approach of honoring the fuzzy friends. One of the tees and the tote boast a photographic image of a cat that looks genuinely unimpressed. Below with white font the words 'Don't Tell Me To Smile' stand out, poking fun at the traditional human-feline dynamic. In addition to this indifference-channeling cat-inspired fashion collection, Wildfang offers the 'Ultimate WF Cat Button-Up' which is styled with an eclectic collage of cats. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.9/10 - Popularity: 62% | Activity: 46% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Humor](https://www.trendhunter.com/humor) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Cat-inspired Fashion:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create a line of high-end, luxury cat-inspired fashion that combines sleek designs with feline motifs. - **Humorous Fashion Collections:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop a collection of fashion items that use witty slogans and humorous images to make a bold statement and engage consumers. - **Animal-inspired Accessories:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Design a range of accessories inspired by different animals, such as bags, hats, and jewelry, to tap into the growing demand for unique and quirky fashion pieces. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Integrate new materials and technologies into the fashion industry to create innovative and sustainable cat-inspired fashion collections. - **Retail:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop online platforms or physical stores dedicated to selling niche and unconventional fashion collections, catering to the interests of specific consumer groups. - **Advertising and Marketing:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Collaborate with artists and graphic designers to create eye-catching advertising campaigns that promote cat-inspired fashion collections in a creative and memorable way. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Pet-Inspired Culinary Celebrations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/international-cat-day.md) - [Cat-Themed Vday Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cuddle-collection.md) - [Limited-Edition Cat Dad Hoodies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cat-dad-hoodies.md) - [DTC Cat Lifestyle Brands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cat-person.md) - [Cat-Inspired Luxury Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hello-kitty-and-kate-spade.md) - [Pleated Feline-Inspired Purses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/playful-volume-2.md) - [Cat-Inclusive Dinnerware](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fancy-feast-set-for-delight.md) - [Cartoon Kitty-Themed Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/forever-21-3.md) - [Cat-Centric Culinary Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/feastivities-collection-by-fancy-feast.md)
