These [avant-garde style captures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hm-x-glenn-martens) feature colorful plastic accessories, surreal surroundings and unusual hairstyles. Holt sports a number of punkish hairstyles in this series, from hot pink mohawks, to black up-dos and blonde flowing locks. Some of the [bizarre gowns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wild-rose-sparrow) seen in these shots are stripped, while others are silky. Many of Holt's frocks are neon, attracting immediate attention. A few of these shots incorporate some rather [strange props](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/biomimicry-fashion). One photo focuses on this queenly figure being attacked by two oversized praying mantis's. In another shot, she sits calmly with a large crab on her lap. Some shots feature floating fluff balls, while others contain bees and locusts. These bubbly avant-garde photos may be inspired by royalty, but they're extremely artistic and unusual. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.8/10 - Popularity: 88% | Activity: 47% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Media](https://www.trendhunter.com/media) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Avant-garde Fashion:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in creating unique and unconventional clothing designs. - **Surreal Photography:** Opportunity to disrupt the photography industry by creating imaginative and unconventional visual experiences. - **Colorful Accessories:** Opportunity to disrupt the fashion industry by designing vibrant and eye-catching accessories. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion:** The fashion industry can leverage avant-garde styles to attract attention and stand out from competitors. - **Photography:** Photography professionals can explore surreal concepts to create captivating and unique visual narratives. - **Accessories:** The accessories industry can embrace vibrant and colorful designs to appeal to a fashion-forward customer base. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Wild Animal-Decorated Gowns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/schiaparelli-lion-head.md) - [Avant-Garde Radish Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/radish-hat.md) - [Politically-Inspired Runway Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selkies-the-libertine-collection.md) - [Statement-Making Fall Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-fall-2025.md) - [Avant-Garde High Streetwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hm-x-glenn-martens.md) - [Offbeat Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/asos-inspired-by.md) - [Avant-Garde Biomimicry Fashion Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/biomimicry-fashion.md) - [Unique Artistic Books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/amusebouche.md) - [Sustainably-Focused Experimental Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/upcycled-fashion-collection.md)
