Chris New's 'Goetschel' is a fashion photoshoot that is anything but ordinary. This shoot features women warriors in [knitted ensembles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/macmahon-knitting-mills-and-beams), battling it out in a [post-apocalyptic wasteland](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/khaotique-noir).

'Goetschel' was actually shot in a Savannah, Georgia recycling dump. Turning a recycling dump into a [fashion battleground](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/songs-of-siren) is no small task, but Chris New pulled it off flawlessly. Check out the featured photos here, and read below to find out more inside information about the shoot.

## Key Themes

### What Makes This Trend Stand Out

- **Post-apocalyptic Fashion:** There is opportunity for innovative designers to create fashion that reflects a post-apocalyptic world.
- **Knitted Ensembles:** There is potential for growth in the popularity of knitted ensembles as a unique fashion trend.
- **Warrior Women:** Warrior women could become a major theme in fashion and media, providing opportunities for designers and marketers alike.

### Sectors Adopting This

- **Fashion:** Fashion designers and companies should keep an eye on the rising trends of post-apocalyptic fashion and knitted ensembles.
- **Textile:** As knitted ensembles gain popularity, textile manufacturers may have the opportunity to specialize in producing materials for these types of outfits.
- **Entertainment:** With the potential growth of warrior women as a theme in media, there is opportunity for companies in the entertainment industry to feature and promote strong female leads in movies and TV shows.
