Floor length gowns? Sure. Glamorous hair? Ok. But bring a [fierce attitude](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/songs-of-siren) and the elegant looks were have a rebellious streak in no time. Interestingly enough, Fashion Gone Rogue writes, "Issue 8 focuses on Americana style, and the California-raised beauty personifies the blonde bombshell persona." Shot by photographer Sebastian Faena and styled by Carine Roitfeld, the CR Fashion Book Gigi Hadid editorial features such pieces as a Versace dress and black Saint Laurent by Hedi Slimane gown. Captured in a [dimly lit restaurant setting](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/il-pranzo-campaign), a person can imagine that the svelte model was at an important event or perhaps even on a date. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.9/10 - Popularity: 100% | Activity: 100% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hip Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/hipfashion) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Edgy Haute Couture:** Opportunity for designers to create high fashion clothing with a rebellious and edgy twist. - **Rebellious Glamour:** Chance for beauty and haircare brands to promote elegant looks with a fierce and rebellious attitude. - **Americana Style:** Potential for fashion brands to embrace and reinvent classic American fashion trends with a modern twist. ### Where This Applies - **Fashion Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Incorporating edginess into haute couture designs. - **Beauty and Haircare:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Creating products and styles that blend glamour with a rebellious attitude. - **Fashion Retail:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Introducing updated Americana style clothing collections to cater to modern consumers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Gingham-Forward Apparel Edits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/maison-amorys-gingham-edit.md) - [Contemporary Femininity Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contemporary-femininity.md) - [Archetypal Fashion Debuts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/la-famiglia-collection.md) - [Cinematic Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alessandro-micheles.md) - [Cinematic Fashion Films](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-tiger.md) - [Politically-Inspired Runway Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selkies-the-libertine-collection.md) - [Feminine Rebellion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/songs-of-siren.md) - [Restyled Cinematic Makeup Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/il-pranzo-campaign.md) - [Monochrome Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jiyongkim-fw25.md)
