The Damon Baker 'Polly Brown' spread in 'Brave New Girl features a smoking hot model rocking a wide array of killer fashions and wild hairdos.

The looks on display in this Damon Baker 'Polly Brown' photo shoot range from classic to wild. My favorite is the hooded, sleeveless black dress covered with [feathers at the bottom](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/majestic-feathers). That outfit combined with the mohawk-esque hair makes this a standout image.

**Implications** - One of the best ways for a company or brand can distinguish itself in the marketplace is by investing in a traditional product that features a [radical design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hm-x-glenn-martens) or [avant-garde elements](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brucolic). By eschewing the conventions associated with a product, the company immediately sets itself apart from others in the same field.
