Reviving a retro style aesthetic, the editorial is lensed by photographer Aitken Jolly and features wardrobe picks by Grace Cobb. Cobb dresses her muse in [vibrant maxi dresses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contemporary-femininity), oversized tunics and clashing pant and top combinations that each display a different floral fabric. The model also pulls off [nostalgic hair and makeup looks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gap-and-den) by Nao Kawakami and Shinobu who opt for teased locks and makeup that references the glamorous 60s and 70s. Lensed inside of a nostalgic home, Space to Grow follows the life of a fictional housewife (Devon Windsor) who, despite her fashionable wardrobe, seems distant and contemplative in her day to day activities. Though ultra glamorous, this image series is also candid and makes a commentary about women during the 60s and 70s. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.6/10 - Popularity: 69% | Activity: 32% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/stylephotography) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Retro Fashion Revival:** Opportunity for fashion brands to incorporate vintage-inspired designs and prints into their collections. - **Floral Fabric Trend:** Potential for textile companies to create and promote floral fabrics for various fashion applications. - **Nostalgic Hair and Makeup:** Beauty industry can explore creating products and services that cater to nostalgic hair and makeup looks inspired by the 60s and 70s. ### Who This Affects Most - **Fashion:** Fashion brands can tap into the retro fashion trend by offering clothing and accessories with vintage-inspired designs and prints. - **Textile:** Textile companies can capitalize on the floral fabric trend by producing and marketing a wide range of floral fabrics for fashion designers and manufacturers. - **Beauty:** Opportunity for beauty brands to develop and promote products and services that cater to nostalgic hair and makeup looks reminiscent of the 60s and 70s. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Whimsical Spring Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/Anna-Suis-SpringSummer-2025.md) - [Dreamy Apparel Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frankies-bikinis-keepsakes-collection.md) - [Spring Fashion Blooms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reformation-spring-2025.md) - [Exploratory Rose-Centered Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eva-green.md) - [Contemporary Femininity Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contemporary-femininity.md) - [Pattern-Heavy Fashion Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/needles-new-collection.md) - [Gingham-Forward Apparel Edits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/maison-amorys-gingham-edit.md) - [Empowering Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/on-your-own-time.md) - [Accessible Nostalgic Apparel Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gap-and-den.md)
