The i-D Magazine Summer 2014 Julia Nobis photoshoot provides a rather intense look at the model. Photographer Willy Vanderperre stuck to the basis in a [minimalist manner](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nike-x-sacai) by focusing on one or two clothing items in each shot, zeroing in on simplicity and style all at once.

Working alongside Vanderperre for this i-D Magazine production was stylist Olivier Rizzo. Instead of dressing up Nobis in an exaggerated manner with a host of accessories and over the top apparel, he brought the scene to a relatable level with thick crew neck sweaters, athletic vests and a [basic black blazer](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/studio-nicholson-fw25).

Despite the relaxed nature of this editorial, the incorporation of [couture pieces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/louis-vuitton-springsummer-2026) still set it over the edge. Sheer plastic booties make it apparent that viewers are taking in a chic, high end set.

## Key Themes

### What Makes This Trend Stand Out

- **Minimalist Fashion:** There is potential for a disruptive innovation opportunity to create minimalist clothing lines that focus on simplicity and style, rather than over-the-top apparel and accessories.
- **Statement Pieces:** There is potential for a disruptive innovation opportunity to create clothing lines that focus on one or two striking pieces in each shot, zeroing in on the unique and daring all at once.

### Sectors Adopting This
