After watching her walk in her first [Victoria's Secret Fashion Show](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/atelier-victorias-secret) just last week, it's hard to believe that the girl with [stringy, orange-tipped hair and leather pants](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-october-collection) in these photos is the same girl who walked down a glitter-covered runway wearing angel wings just the other day. Shot by photographer Greg Kadel and styled by Elizabeth Sulcer, Kloss wears Tom Ford, Roberto Cavalli, Michael Kors and [Dior](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dior-2024-campaign) and Valentino Couture. While it's hard to predict what one of the world's top models is going to do next, one thing is for sure: the Karlie Kloss for Numero #129 editorial spread is stunning in the grittiest way possible. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.2/10 - Popularity: 78% | Activity: 69% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Media](https://www.trendhunter.com/media) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Grunge-inspired Fashion:** Opportunity to create a new fashion trend that combines bold, edgy styling with glamorous elements. - **Transformational Makeup:** Disruptive innovation potential exists for makeup products that can transform a person's appearance drastically. - **High-fashion Model Makeovers:** Opportunity exists for fashion photographers and stylists to experiment with transformational looks within high-fashion editorial spreads. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Fashion Industry:** The fashion industry can benefit from incorporating grunge-inspired fashion and transformational makeup into their designs and products. - **Beauty Industry:** The beauty industry can develop new products to help people transform their appearance without relying on expensive and time-consuming treatments. - **Photography Industry:** The photography industry can experiment with transformational looks within high-fashion editorial spreads to better showcase their creativity and artistic abilities. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Model-Collaborative Luxe Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cara-loves-karl.md) - [Intimate Fashion Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/velvet-heat.md) - [Cinematic Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alessandro-micheles.md) - [Nostalgic Winter Intimates Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skims-holiday-campaign.md) - [Body Paint Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miley-cyrus-maison-margiela.md) - [Restyled Cinematic Makeup Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/il-pranzo-campaign.md) - [Effortless Urban Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/knys-fall-2025.md) - [Romantic Resort Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kallmeyer-resort-2026-collection.md) - [Local Hotspot Fashion Shoots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heartbeat-campaign.md)
