Crisp and fresh, this [autumn beauty](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/szane-fall-2025) makes it so that you can almost smell the damp earth and clammy stones. Shot by Melissa Moffat, a photographer based in Toronto, Canada, the Garden Fashion photo series stars model Bronwin. Stylist Jessica Parti chose to go in a [gritty glam direction](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-october-collection) that fed off of Bronwin's natural surroundings while not compromising her stunning beauty and sophisticated air. With [draping pearls and cargo shorts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/studio-nicholson-fw25), the looks are casual and chic. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.4/10 - Popularity: 18% | Activity: 17% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: 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 ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Fall Garden Fashion:** Opportunity for fashion brands to create trendy and functional clothing for the fall gardening season. - **Gritty Glam Styling:** Potential for stylists and fashion designers to create edgy, urban-inspired looks that incorporate elements of nature. - **Outdoor Fashion Photography:** Demand for photographers specializing in capturing fashion shoots in natural, outdoor settings. ### Where This Applies - **Fashion:** Disruptive innovation opportunities for fashion brands to cater to the fall gardening season and incorporate elements of nature into their designs. - **Styling:** Opportunity for stylists to experiment with gritty glam looks that blend urban fashion with natural surroundings. - **Photography:** Opportunity for photographers to specialize in outdoor fashion shoots, capturing the beauty of nature while highlighting fashionable clothing. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Flora-Inspired Body Autonomy Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/full-bush-summer.md) - [Botanically Inspired Fashion Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/burberry-x-highgrove.md) - [90s Grunge-Inspired Fall Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-october-collection.md) - [Crocheted Rose Garden Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tyler-mcgillivary-vines-tank.md) - [Statement-Making Fall Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-fall-2025.md) - [Patterned Floral Gardening Clogs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gardening-clog.md) - [Lush Garden-Focused Melbourne Homes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gardeners-house-1.md) - [Celebrity-Backed Outdoor Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/martha-stewart-2.md) - [Refined Vintage Militaristic Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/studio-nicholson-fw25.md)
