# Long-Locked Backstage Boys The Duckie Brown FW 2012 Show Features Long-Haired Dudes By Sophia Pelka | Published 2012-02-11 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/duckie-brown-fw-2012 References: [fashionising](http://www.fashionising.com/runway/b--duckie-brown-mens-backstage-aw-12-19083.html#13) & [duckiebrown](http://www.duckiebrown.com/) The Duckie Brown FW 2012 show featured an eccentric collection of flannel pants, drop-crotch trousers and tough wooly coast. The most memorable aspect of the show, however, was the series of rugged-chic models. Many of the models in the show donned a bed-head mop or long locks. The skater boy-esque hair gave the entire line a street-worthy feel, where it may have otherwise been just another lumberjack look. What's more, the dudes in the show carried a brooding look. The careless attitude in combination with the untamed hair gave the show an effortless appeal. Duckie Brown is a New York-based fashion line, with a goal as pure and true as it could be in the fashion world -- dressing men beautifully. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.4/10 - Popularity: 60% | Activity: 34% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hair](https://www.trendhunter.com/hair) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Eccentric Fashion:** Potential disruptive innovation opportunity: Creating unique and unconventional fashion collections that stand out from the crowd. - **Street-worthy Style:** Potential disruptive innovation opportunity: Designing clothing lines that merge streetwear with high fashion, appealing to a wider audience. - **Effortless Appeal:** Potential disruptive innovation opportunity: Developing fashion collections that capture a relaxed and carefree aesthetic while maintaining a high level of sophistication. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Fashion:** Potential disruptive innovation opportunity: Introducing new fashion lines that challenge traditional norms and push boundaries. - **Men's Apparel:** Potential disruptive innovation opportunity: Creating diverse and unconventional clothing options for men, breaking away from traditional and stereotypical styles. - **Streetwear:** Potential disruptive innovation opportunity: Exploring streetwear market with a focus on unique hairstyles, fashion-forward designs, and unconventional looks. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Experimental Fall Wardrobe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/khaotique-noir.md) - [Evolutionary Menswear Fashion Shows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ss-daley-1.md) - [Dynamic Fall-Centric Fashion Shows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jordanluca-1.md) - [Cowboy-Inspired Runways](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/louis-vuitton-fw-2024.md) - [Contemporary Fall-Centric Menswear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/latimmier.md) - [Edgy Backpack-Centric Fashion Shows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/at-the-edge-of-time.md) - [Fall-Centric Dynamic Fashion Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/undercover-5.md) - [Fall Technical Fashion Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/atom-collection.md) - [Queer Wool Runway Looks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/i-wool-survive.md)
