# Gentlemanly Greenhouse Galleries Darwinian by Cecilia Austin is Lushly Stylish By Meghan Young | Published 2012-01-04 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/darwinian-by-cecilia-austin References: [fashionising](http://www.fashionising.com/pictures/b--Growing-and-evolving-15442.html) & [ceciliaaustin](http://www.ceciliaaustin.com/) There is as much of a gentlemanly element to the photo series titled Darwinian by Cecilia Austin as there is a scientific one. It may be inspired by the [celebrated English naturalist](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gshock-x-charles-darwin-foundation), but at the end of the day it is all about style and men's fashion. It is influence by the era in which Darwin was alive, the 19th century, and injects it into the modern world. The photo shoot Darwinian by Cecilia Austin appropriately takes place in a [lush greenhouse](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/splinter-society). The fresh foliage doesn't distract from the dapper fashion, however, although the occasional eccentric accessory might. Stylist Minami Takashima concentrates on [classic silhouettes, organic textures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/biomimicry-fashion) and unusual plant-like accessories, some which she made by hand. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.5/10 - Popularity: 56% | Activity: 12% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/stylephotography) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Greenhouse Fashion:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Designing fashion collections inspired by organic textures and plant-like accessories for an eco-friendly and sustainable aesthetic. - **Victorian-inspired Men's Fashion:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Creating modern interpretations of classic silhouettes from the 19th century, merging traditional styles with contemporary menswear. - **Nature-inspired Photo Shoots:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Developing unique photography concepts that blend fashion with natural settings, capturing the beauty of both elements. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Fashion:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Exploring new avenues of eco-fashion and sustainable design inspired by organic textures and plant-like accessories. - **Photography:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Introducing innovative photography techniques that combine fashion and nature, creating captivating visuals for editorials and campaigns. - **Menswear:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Rethinking traditional menswear by incorporating Victorian-inspired styles, patterns, and accessories into modern fashion collections. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Evolutionary Menswear Fashion Shows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ss-daley-1.md) - [Botanically Inspired Fashion Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/burberry-x-highgrove.md) - [Garden Green Cocktails](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/green-cocktail.md) - [Blooming Clustered Art Forms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/structural-botany.md) - [Refined Vintage Militaristic Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/studio-nicholson-fw25.md) - [Boxy Botanical Outerwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/garden-jacket.md) - [Biomimetic Fashion Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nonhuman-life.md) - [Modern Minimalist Apparel Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-latest-summer-edit.md) - [Conservation-Focused Timepieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gshock-x-charles-darwin-foundation.md)
