# Contrasting Embossed Fashion Rita Ora by Baker for the Sunday Times Displays White & Black Pieces By Jordy E | Published 2012-04-16 | Pop Culture Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contrasting-fashion-shoots References: [zac-fashion](http://zac-fashion.com/rita-ora-damon-baker-the-sunday-times-style) & [thesundaytimes](http://www.thesundaytimes.co.uk/sto/style/) UK singer, songwriter and actress Rita Ora has graced the latest pages of The Sunday Times Style. Photographed by Damon Baker, Ora showcased her usual fun-loving self, full of smiles and funky poses. And although many summertime photoshoots are now featuring bright colors and pastel tones, the Baker collection displays a variation of [black and white shades](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jiyongkim-fw25), providing for an electric contrasting set. Baker has captured the talented star within six-inch studded heels, [flower-pleated skirts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alessandra-rich) and an embossed crop top. All of the ensembles offer variations on a black and white theme, sometimes showing more white than black, or vice versa. Ora’s makeup and hair choices follow the same theme, flaunting exaggerated flirty white-blonde curls and a deep purple lipstick. Pulled off with taste and style, this series has honed in on the beauty of juxtaposition. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.7/10 - Popularity: 60% | Activity: 74% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Media](https://www.trendhunter.com/media) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Monochrome Fashion:** The contrasting black and white fashion trend can provide an opportunity for brands to experiment with monochrome designs and accessories. - **Embossed Textures:** The use of embossed textures in clothing can offer a unique and textured fashion line for designers and clothing brands. - **Contrasting Colors in Makeup and Hair:** Makeup and hair artists can take inspiration from the contrasting colors in fashion, utilizing black and white makeup and hair accessories to create bold and edgy looks. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion:** Fashion brands and designers can explore monochrome designs, embossed textures, and contrasted colors in their upcoming lines to appeal to consumers seeking bold and unique fashion choices. - **Beauty:** Makeup and hair artists can showcase their creativity by experimenting with contrasting colors in makeup and hair, and by creating bold looks that are both edgy and elegant. - **Photography:** Photographers can incorporate the trend of monochrome fashion and embossed textures into their photo shoots to create visually striking and eye-catching images. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Vibrant Collaborative Geometric Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/roksanda-1.md) - [Body Paint Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miley-cyrus-maison-margiela.md) - [British Singer-Starred Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jw-anderson-4.md) - [Feminine Rebellion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/songs-of-siren.md) - [Coordinated Leather Sets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rudsak-spring-collection.md) - [Modern Minimalist Apparel Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-latest-summer-edit.md) - [Brand Staple-Highlighting Luxe Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rathbonenewman.md) - [Monochrome Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jiyongkim-fw25.md) - [Desert-Inspired Fashion Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rudsak-ss25-collection.md)
