For designers looking for a simple way to give incredible spunk to their fashion stories, a conspicuous, attention-grabbing setting with vibrantly contrasting or single colors is a sure bet. Take this exciting photo series by Haruki Horikawa for example.

Haruki Horikawa, a fashion Photographer based in London, captures model Leebo Freeman in a [vibrant fashion photo shoot](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/profiles-in-color) for Hysteria Magazine. There is nothing quite like its [bold style that attracts attention](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/colorama) immediately. From blue and pink to just plain red with shadows, the conspicuous colors combined with the shadowy photo effects make this shoot incredibly striking. Additionally, Freeman’s burly presence and [cool vibrant menswear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/studio-nicholson-fw25) add retro flair to Horikawa’s eye-catching photo shoot.
