# Chic Amish-Inspired Fashion The ELLE Ukraine August 2013 Photoshoot Stars Yuliana Dementyeva By Meghan Young | Published 2013-07-16 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/elle-ukraine-august-2013 References: [fashiongonerogue](http://www.fashiongonerogue.com/yuliana-dementyeva-lives-the-amish-life-for-elle-ukraine-august-2013-by-nikolay-biryukov/) & [elle.ua](http://elle.ua/) The ELLE Ukraine August 2013 editorial goes to the country for some inspiration. In fact, specifically turns to the Amish way of life. From the typical brimmed black hat to the full skirts and collars, the outfits could easily have been taken from the closet of an Amish woman. That is, if a person doesn't look too closely at the details. Although simple, there is certainly nothing plain about them. Styled by Natalia Osadchaya, the [monochromatic outfits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-latest-summer-edit) showcased throughout the ELLE Ukraine August 2013 are full of [form-fitting silhouettes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-fall-2025) and modern textures that any woman would want to get their hands on. Yet the lush backdrops, which were lensed by Nikolay Biryukov, give them some context. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.5/10 - Popularity: 71% | Activity: 55% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hip Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/hipfashion) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Amish-inspired Fashion:** The Amish-inspired fashion trend presents an opportunity for fashion brands to create minimalist, monochromatic outfits with form-fitting silhouettes and modern textures. - **Rural-inspired Fashion:** The trend towards rural-inspired fashion, such as Amish-inspired outfits, provides an opportunity for designers to experiment with traditional and rustic elements in contemporary designs. - **Nostalgic Fashion:** The nostalgia trend in fashion, exemplified by Amish-inspired fashion, allows brands to tap into consumers' desire for simplicity and authenticity in their clothing choices. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion:** The fashion industry can capitalize on the Amish-inspired fashion trend by incorporating minimalist designs, monochromatic color schemes, and rustic elements into their collections. - **Luxury Fashion:** Luxury fashion brands can explore the Amish-inspired trend as an opportunity to create high-end versions of the minimalist, monochromatic fashion with a focus on quality craftsmanship and exclusive materials. - **Photography:** The photography industry can benefit from the Amish-inspired fashion trend by creating visually striking editorials that juxtapose the simplicity of the outfits with lush rural backdrops. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Reprised Fall Apparel Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shein-reimagines-autumnal-fashion.md) - [Ukraine-Inspired Furniture Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/victoria-yakusha.md) - [Timelessly Charming Fashion Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mi-amor-collection.md) - [Offbeat Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/asos-inspired-by.md) - [Modern Minimalist Apparel Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-latest-summer-edit.md) - [Gingham-Forward Apparel Edits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/maison-amorys-gingham-edit.md) - [Desert-Inspired Fashion Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rudsak-ss25-collection.md) - [Beach-Inspired Spring Fashion Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/a-kind-of-guise-3.md) - [Liberating Lingerie Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zhilyova.md)
