It is comprised of closet stables with unexpected, yet subtle twists such as turbans, belled sleeves and voluminous skirts. It is as though this line was made for a modern princess. Perhaps it was inspired by the medieval styles seen throughout the [HBO](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/game-of-thrones-x-pandora) hit 'Game of Thrones.' This Chicago-based [womenswear label](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/artless-forevers-fall-25) is known for its [elegant, yet versatile designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-latest-summer-edit). The Imaginary People Fall 2011 collection features some of its more popular pieces from its Core Basics collection made appropriate for the cooler weather while introducing new fabrics for more sophisticated looks. These include wool blend winter jackets, satiny button-up tops and silky pants. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.7/10 - Popularity: 68% | Activity: 66% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - 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 ### What's Driving This Trend - **Dramatically Draped Silhouettes:** Designing fashion with dramatically draped silhouettes offers innovative and unique styles. - **Unexpected Twists:** Incorporating unexpected twists into fashion pieces provides opportunities for disruption and creativity. - **Versatile Designs:** Creating versatile designs that can be worn in multiple ways allows for innovation in the fashion industry. ### Who This Affects Most - **Womenswear:** The womenswear industry can benefit from incorporating dramatically draped silhouettes and unexpected twists into their designs. - **Fashion Design:** In the fashion design industry, there is an opportunity to experiment with versatile designs and innovative twists. - **Textile Manufacturing:** Textile manufacturers can embrace innovative fabrics and techniques to create visually stunning and versatile designs. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Statement-Making Fall Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-fall-2025.md) - [Uniform-Inspired Apparel Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/back-to-drama-school.md) - [Minimally Elegant Fall-Ready Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/studio-nicholson-1.md) - [Seasonal Fashion Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/siegelman-stable-1.md) - [Futuristic Fall-Centric Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/origins-collection.md) - [Experimental Fall Wardrobe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/khaotique-noir.md) - [Timeless Sophisticated Fashion Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fallwinter-2025.md) - [Politically-Inspired Runway Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selkies-the-libertine-collection.md) - [Fall-Centric Layered Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/uniqlo-u-fw24.md)
