The photographer used [monochrome](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jiyongkim-fw25) and polychrome shots to create different visual effects and it makes the colored images really stand out. The black and white images will make you want to visualize the colors and textures of her outfit because they contrast so strongly with the colored images. Her garments are very [fashion forward](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stylish-fashion-campaigns-marc-jacobs-unveils-its-spring-2025-marcworld-cam) and [edgy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/at-the-edge-of-time) – probably something Lady Gaga would have in her wardrobe. Belts, knee-high boots and huge black sunglasses maker her look tough and intimidating. Her short shorts and oversized sweater with lace front bring the femininity of her figure back for a really cool balance. This shoot by Elyse Walker really has a slick style to it. It might remind you of the 80s with denim garments or take you way back to the 50s with the leather and sunglasses. This fun series has a lot of looks you’ll want to rock for spring, summer and fall. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.2/10 - Popularity: 90% | Activity: 59% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## 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 - **Fashion Forward and Edgy Garments:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the fashion industry to create bold and unconventional clothing designs. - **Visual Effects in Fashion Photography:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the photography industry to experiment with different visual effects and create unique and captivating images. - **Combining Masculine and Feminine Elements in Fashion:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the fashion industry to create a cool balance of masculine and feminine elements in clothing designs. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Fashion Industry:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the fashion industry to push boundaries and explore new fashion styles and trends. - **Photography Industry:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the photography industry to create visually stunning and unconventional fashion photography. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Local Hotspot Fashion Shoots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heartbeat-campaign.md) - [Feminine Rebellion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/songs-of-siren.md) - [Contemporary Femininity Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contemporary-femininity.md) - [Modern Minimalist Apparel Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-latest-summer-edit.md) - [Shoppable Luxury Fashion Films](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxury-fashion-film.md) - [Punk Rock-Informed Fall Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/superculture-collection.md) - [Stylish Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stylish-fashion-campaigns-marc-jacobs-unveils-its-spring-2025-marcworld-cam.md) - [Statement-Making Fall Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-fall-2025.md) - [Refined Vintage Militaristic Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/studio-nicholson-fw25.md)
