# Cosmic Couture Katya Ford Replaces Fashion and Skin With Astrological Bodies By Bianca | Published 2009-05-13 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cosmic-couture-katya-ford References: [youmightlikethis](http://www.youmightlikethis.com/2009/05/katya-ford-the-galaxy-within/) & [flickr](http://www.flickr.com/photos/katyaford) Instead of using human bodies to flaunt her fashions, Katya Ford uses [celestial bodies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/venus-lounge). Her fun, ethereal photography results from some pretty neat photoshop tricks that plunk starry skies and patterns of real-life constellations in place of fashions, or in some cases, skin. For one image, Katya Ford turned the backs of women in [coats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/transhabit-collection) in twinkling canvases, while in another, she gave a woman with a platinum bob glittering skin to contrast her LBD. Another piece of [cosmic couture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cosmic-teal) were the heels in which she placed a dazzling night sky in place of the soles. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.1/10 - Popularity: 32% | Activity: 24% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hip Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/hipfashion) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Celestial Fashion:** Incorporate celestial bodies and starry skies to create unique fashions for the trendy and futuristic market. - **Astrological Texture:** Integrate patterns of real-life constellations to add a pleasing texture to modern clothing items. - **Cosmic Photography:** Use photoshopping techniques to create out-of-this-world fashion photos that plays with the viewer's concept of reality. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion Industry:** The fashion industry can take inspiration from these techniques to create new collections for the coming years. - **Cosmetics Industry:** Introducing glitter and bright colors can create interesting and visually appealing makeup products. - **Photography Industry:** Adaption of these techniques can create unique pieces of artwork that break standard photography traditions. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Luxury Resort Apparel Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteurs-resort-2025-collection.md) - [Luminous Galactic-Themed Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/space-couture.md) - [Reimagined Digital Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/deep-23.md) - [Cosmos-Inspired High-Jewelry Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cleste-collection.md) - [Haute Auto Pattern Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/audi-car-couture.md) - [Constellation-Inspired Luxury Pop-Ups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/winter-constellation.md) - [Futuristic Fall-Centric Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/origins-collection.md) - [Astrology-Aligned Cosmetics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/maya-jama-x-rimmel.md) - [Body Artwork-Inspired Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/body-tattoo.md)
