Photographer Carter Smith and stylist Mario Grauso are the creatives behind this editorial, which features Vojnovic in romantic full-skirted gowns and other classic eveningwear from New York-based designers. Performers from the [American Ballet Theatre](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/native-sensitive-series) join Natasa Vojnovic for 'Curtain Call' in Elle magazine, stretching, posing and dancing to set off the model's dramatic poses. **Implications** - Vojnovic's hair was styled by Diego Da Silva, who made sure she had perfectly subtle waves. Her makeup was done by Mike Potter who used a [pinky-red lipstick and sparkling neutral eyeshadow](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/il-pranzo-campaign). Her style is soft and graceful, just like a ballerina's movements. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.9/10 - Popularity: 90% | Activity: 79% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hip Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/hipfashion) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Fashionable Ballerina:** Combining the gracefulness of ballet with modern fashion to create a new trend that blends two seemingly contrasting industries. - **Collaborative Performances:** Partnering with other industries, such as dance or music, to create unique and creative photoshoots or campaigns. - **Romantic Eveningwear:** Designing more gowns and outfits that evoke a romantic and whimsical aesthetic, much like the ones worn by Natasa Vojnovic in the Elle editorial. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Fashion:** The fashion industry can look to collaborate with dancers or other performers to create visually stunning content and campaigns. - **Performing Arts:** The performing arts industry can explore more opportunities to collaborate with other industries, such as fashion or music, to expand their reach and showcase their talents. - **Beauty:** The beauty industry can create makeup and hair styles that are inspired by the gracefulness and beauty of ballet performances. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Ballet-Inspired Altheticwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/en-pointe-collection.md) - [Ballet-Inspired Split-Toe Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-rift-black-swan.md) - [Whimsical Feminine Runway Shows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wild-rose-sparrow.md) - [Elegant Ballerina-Inspired Slippers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/satin-ballerin.md) - [Restyled Cinematic Makeup Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/il-pranzo-campaign.md) - [Balletcore Collaborative Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gelkinetic-fluent-1.md) - [Artist-Approved Intricate Wallpaper Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/printed-decors.md) - [Statement-Making Fall Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-fall-2025.md) - [Cinematic Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alessandro-micheles.md)
