Glen Luchford captures Russian model Natalie Vodianova in a [retro-themed](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/prefall-2026-collection) set of pictures that's reminiscent of the Golden Age of [Hollywood](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hollywood-beauty-icon-lipsticks). Vodianova's frilly dresses combined with her Marilyn Monroe hairstyle truly bring out the class in Luchford's pictures. The use of lights further highlights the beauty of the model as well. **Implications** - Contemporary fashion is strongly influenced by styles and trends of the past. So much so that some '[vintage'-designed clothes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lillys-vintage-vault) are just as expensive, if not more expensive than brand-new clothes. By honing in on consumer's desire to don the clothing of societies past, corporations can capitalize on the nostalgia associated with 'retro'-influenced designs. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.3/10 - Popularity: 95% | Activity: 87% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/stylephotography) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Vintage Fashion:** Capitalizing on consumer nostalgia for retro-influenced designs in contemporary fashion. - **Retro-themed Photography:** Utilizing retro-themed photography to evoke feelings of elegance and posh. - **Golden Age of Hollywood:** Incorporating elements from the Golden Age of Hollywood in fashion and photography. ### Where This Applies - **Fashion:** Brands can create and market vintage-inspired clothing lines to cater to consumers' desire for retro styles. - **Photography:** Photographers can specialize in retro-themed photography to cater to clients seeking a nostalgic and elegant aesthetic. - **Entertainment:** Film and television production companies can create content inspired by the Golden Age of Hollywood, capturing the essence of elegance and glamour. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Intimate Fashion Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/velvet-heat.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) - [Restyled Cinematic Makeup Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/il-pranzo-campaign.md) - [Cinematic Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alessandro-micheles.md) - [Nostalgic Fragrance Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iconic-90s-looks.md) - [Cross-Cultural Runway Shows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chinese-golden-age-models.md) - [Iconic Singer-Starring Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/saint-laurent-and-diana-ross.md) - [Shoppable Luxury Fashion Films](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/luxury-fashion-film.md)
