The Julius Bramanto 'XL Lab' photo series shows exactly how [experimental fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-future-is-not-set) can be. Interestingly enough, it also illustrates that when it comes to [personal style](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shapes-we-take), we're often only clones of a few style icons.

Shot for their 2010-2011 campaign, the Julius Bramanto 'XL Lab' photo series was pulled together by a great team. The shoot features work from stylist Thornandes James, makeup artist Carry and photo assistants Ken Arini, Shuri and Retno Prasasti. Of course, we can't forget about the [stunning model](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/winter-2025-campaign), Katya Kasatkina.
