Design firm DesignCrowd recently hosted a competition for designers to enter what they think various [famous actors and actresses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/galleria-handbag) would look like if they were youthful high-fashion hipsters. The results are quite striking as the designers used Photoshop and [editing programs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hippist-ai) to play around and superimpose pictures of various celebrities with fashionable hipster trademarks.

These [illustrations vary in style](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soccerthemed-illustrations) and definition of what it is to be hipster. Some illustrations focus on adding tattoos, glasses, colored hair and beards to well-known actors like Leonardo DiCaprio and Christian Bale and others focus more on giving the celebrities more of a goth look with added dark makeup and lightened skin colors. The images are hilarious to look through and each varies in style as well as chosen celebrity.
