While I can’t state safely that this is, in fact, a new [fashion campaign direction](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hookipa-ultra-campaign), I’m loving the use of everyday people as models; check out these Illesteva SS10 images to see what I mean.

The [creative eyewear brand](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/inaugural-eyewear-collection) showcases their latest [Illesteva SS10 sunglasses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modern-retro-collection) on veteran domino players, giving them not only an instant poker player persona, but also a very stylish look. Actually, the first thing that came to mind was ‘cute!’
