# Budding Blossom Editorials 'Growing is Forever' Shows a Blonde Model Blooming By Anne Booth | Published 2013-10-10 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/growing-is-forever References: [evieparazite](http://www.evieparazite.com/growing-is-forever) & [issuu](http://issuu.com/cocomagazine/docs/maypart1/54) In 'Growing is Forever,' photographer Evie Parazite shows a blonde model growing in a greenhouse setting. The model wears plant-like outfits that illustrate her as a blooming flower ready to burst. In 'Growing is Forever,' the model wears [flower crowns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/handcrafted-flower-crown) and green leafy costumes in order to bring the photos and the surroundings to life. The photographs tell the story of a blooming flower but the last few photos illustrate death as the flower holds a [bedazzled skull](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kill-them-with-kindness) in her hand. The makeup is bright, with orange shadow in the inner corners of the model's eyes and a [bright pink matching her lipstick](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/camlia-futura). Parazite uses the setting, the makeup and the fashion to tell the story of growth and renewal. A sliding door even illustrates a new beginning as the model peaks through the frosted frames. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.5/10 - Popularity: 82% | Activity: 46% | 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) > [Hip Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/hipfashion) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Plant Fashion:** There is an opportunity to further develop fashion items inspired by plants, and innovate materials using natural resources. - **Garden Photography:** Creating photography content involving nature and garden can be a new way of expressing stories and promoting products. - **Nature-inspired Makeup:** There is an opportunity to create new makeup trends inspired by the colors and shapes found in the natural world. ### Where This Applies - **Fashion:** Companies can take advantage of materials and inspiration from plants and nature to create new products and collections. - **Photography:** Photographers can explore the potential of garden photography to tell stories, showcase beauty, and promote products. - **Cosmetics:** Makeup companies can experiment with new colors and designs inspired by nature and take advantage of the growing interest in natural and organic products. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Flora-Inspired Body Autonomy Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/full-bush-summer.md) - [Floral-Imbued Fashion Exhibits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flowers-of-yves-saint-laurent.md) - [Blooming Clustered Art Forms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/structural-botany.md) - [Whimsical Couture Settings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chanel-spring-summer-2026.md) - [Handcrafted Flower Crown Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/handcrafted-flower-crown.md) - [Garden-Inspired Jewelry Collabs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-york-botanical-gardens-x-alex-and-ani.md) - [Concept Eyewear Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bouquet-collection-1.md) - [Tarot-Inspired Floral Bouquets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flowerlore-collection.md) - [Immersive Garden Bar Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/americas-first-botanical-garden.md)
