# Artistic License Fashiontography ‘Fantasy Over Fashion' by Lisa Gladkova By Elsa Blaine | Published 2009-08-04 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fantasy-over-fashion-lisa-gladkova References: [fashionserved](http://www.fashionserved.com/Gallery/Fantasy-over-Fashion/273572) ‘Fantasy Over Fashion’ by Lisa Gladkova is a strikingly beautiful set of images emphasizing the art of the photo rather than the clothes themselves. Her intent with this project was, “the exploration of a [fashion photographer’s artistic license](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dirty-looks).” Gladkova’s use of the arresting red, black and white colors create stark contrast and vibrancy. Contrasts continue with the unexpected pairing of black leather, shiny hard metal and flowing sheer fabric. I love the vivid color combination, dramatic lighting, powerful poses and oh…the futuristic goggles! The series was [shot in AUT studios](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-latest-summer-edit). Her models were Tany Casenau, Nancy Lan and Lyna Ear. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.7/10 - Popularity: 81% | Activity: 51% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: 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 ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Artistic Photography:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Explore new ways to capture and present fashion through artistic photography, focusing on creativity and visual storytelling. - **Contrasting Colors:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop bold and unexpected color combinations in fashion design to create striking visual contrast and vibrancy. - **Experimental Fashion:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Push the boundaries of traditional fashion by incorporating unconventional materials such as black leather, shiny hard metal, and flowing sheer fabric. ### Where This Applies - **Fashion Photography:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Integrate technology advancements, such as futuristic goggles, into fashion photography to enhance the artistic and futuristic elements of the shoots. - **Fashion Design:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Embrace contrasting colors as a central design element in creating unique and attention-grabbing fashion pieces. - **Textile Manufacturing:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Experiment with unconventional materials like black leather, shiny hard metal, and flowing sheer fabric to create avant-garde and cutting-edge textiles. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Cinematic Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alessandro-micheles.md) - [AI-Powered Fashion Photography Platforms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/betterstudio.md) - [Feminine Rebellion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/songs-of-siren.md) - [Disruptive Fashion Art Galleries](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dirty-looks.md) - [Politically-Inspired Runway Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selkies-the-libertine-collection.md) - [Unique Artistic Books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/amusebouche.md) - [AI Fashion Photoshoots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/glimsy-ai.md) - [AI-Inspired Fantastical Bridal Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fantastical-bridal-collection.md) - [Statement-Making Fall Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-fall-2025.md)
