# Subtly Eccentric Fashion Fernando Forero Photographs Ladylike Ensembles with a Quirky Edge By Meghan Young | Published 2012-09-14 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fernando-forero References: [fashiongonerogue](http://fashiongonerogue.com/claudia-molly-don-ladylike-fall-looks-for-photographer-fernando-forero/) & [fernandoforero](http://www.fernandoforero.com/) Fernando Forero, a photographer based in New York City, has put together a simple photoshoot showcasing some great fall fashion. Of course, the fashion is far from simple itself. While there is clearly a ladylike theme threaded throughout the photoshoot, a slight eccentricity is thrown into the mix to shake things up a bit. Styled by Mauro Lagiglia, Fernando Forero's photoshoot features the chic designs of such labels as Valentino, Prada, Karan Walker and Helmut Lang. Lagiglia has interestingly paired these pieces with latex gloves, hobo hats, baseball caps and more for looks that are slightly quirky and entirely elegant. Fernando Forero cast models Claudia Ruff and Molly Gay as the leads in his photoshoot, which was shot in studio against a grey backdrop. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.8/10 - Popularity: 81% | Activity: 86% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## 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 - **Eccentric Fashion:** Disruptive innovation opportunities can be found in incorporating unexpected elements into traditionally elegant fashion designs. - **Quirky Styling:** There are opportunities for disruptive innovation in pairing high-end fashion pieces with unconventional accessories to create unique looks. - **Ladylike with a Twist:** Innovative ideas can be explored by combining traditional feminine fashion aesthetics with subtle eccentricity. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion:** Fashion industry professionals can leverage disruptive innovation in their designs by incorporating unconventional elements. - **Photography:** Photography professionals can explore disruptive innovation by experimenting with unconventional styling techniques to create visually striking images. - **Modeling:** Models and agencies can embrace disruptive innovation by showcasing the versatility of combining traditional and unconventional fashion styles. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Cinematic Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alessandro-micheles.md) - [Contemporary Femininity Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contemporary-femininity.md) - [Statement-Making Fall Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-fall-2025.md) - [Minimally Elegant Fall-Ready Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/studio-nicholson-1.md) - [Modern Minimalist Apparel Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-latest-summer-edit.md) - [Pattern-Heavy Fashion Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/needles-new-collection.md) - [Exploratory Rose-Centered Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eva-green.md) - [Politically-Inspired Runway Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selkies-the-libertine-collection.md) - [Dynamic Fall-Centric Fashion Shows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jordanluca-1.md)
