The series focuses on two women whose clothing and expressions evoke scenes from [old Hollywood Horror movies](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alessandro-micheles). This is most clearly seen with one of the models who has been styled in such a way as to resemble the bride of Frankenstein from the 1935 film of the same name. Her hair is dark, big and standing on end -- as though propped up by the electricity of Dr. Frankenstein's machinery -- while her dress is made from luxurious, ghostly white fabric. In short, the look is stunning. If his aim was to create [haute horror couture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/horrific-crocs), Gene Ginno Alducente is dead-on with this series. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.2/10 - Popularity: 70% | Activity: 48% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% 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 ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Dark Fashion Design:** There is an opportunity to create unconventional and edgy fashion designs that draw inspiration from dark and horror elements. - **Vintage Hollywood Horror:** There is a trend of incorporating classic horror movies and iconic characters into fashion designs, providing a nostalgic and unique appeal. - **Electrifying Hair Trends:** There is an opportunity to experiment with bold and electrifying hairstyles that add a dramatic and unconventional element to fashion styling. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Fashion Design:** Fashion designers can explore the realm of dark and horror-inspired fashion, offering a unique and alternative clothing aesthetic. - **Film and Entertainment:** Film and entertainment industries can collaborate with fashion designers to create marketing campaigns or merchandise inspired by classic horror movies. - **Beauty and Haircare:** Beauty and haircare professionals can experiment with innovative and dramatic hairstyles that incorporate elements of electrifying and unconventional looks. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Horror-Creature-Inspired Footwear Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/universal-monsters-collection.md) - [Spooky Back-to-School Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/keds-x-monster-high.md) - [Haunting Fine Jewelry Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/faberge-x-beetlejuice-beetlejuice.md) - [Monster-Adorned Capsule Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/capsule-collections.md) - [Comedic Horror Cosmetics](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nyx-x-beetlejuice.md) - [Product-Inspired Halloween Looks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aldi-and-elladoesfx.md) - [Bold Anime-Inspired Streetwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/geeks-rule-hellsing.md) - [Body Artwork-Inspired Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/body-tattoo.md) - [Reimagined Digital Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/deep-23.md)
