LED lights are becoming incorporated into everything these days, including glowing gowns that illuminate a room to LED shirts to let the party see you arrive from a mile away. After being exposed to hundreds of trends on a daily basis and building a portfolio boasting over a million views, Sarah knows how to find the [next big thing](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tagwalk). The LED light-up apparel craze was one of Sarah’s favorite trends she came across during her summer 2012 internship. When she’s not loving light-up clothing, Sarah spends most of her time on the Internet, finding stories and journalists that inspire her. What is Sarah most proud of? Obtaining the Trend Hunter internship of course. This was the perfect jump-start to her career, and she couldn’t be happier about her experience at the TH Academy. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.6/10 - Popularity: 99% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [About](https://www.trendhunter.com/about) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **LED Light-up Apparel:** Opportunity to create innovative designs and integrate LED lights into clothing items. - **Glowing Gowns:** Potential for creating luminous gowns that illuminate a room and stand out on fashion runways. - **Florescent Runways:** Opportunity to incorporate LED lighting technology into fashion show runways for a stunning visual experience. ### Who This Affects Most - **Fashion:** Fashion industry can embrace LED light-up apparel to create unique and eye-catching designs. - **Event Planning:** LED light-up apparel can be utilized in event planning to create immersive experiences and memorable events. - **Technology:** Technology industry can explore innovative ways to integrate LED lights into clothing and accessories. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [LED Light-Integrated Running Belts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-lumabelt.md) - [Sleek Illuminating Runner Belts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lumabelt.md) - [Unique Long-Lasting Costumes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rave-and-festival-fashion.md) - [Dynamic Shape-Shifting Dresses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/primrose-dress.md) - [Nostalgic Fashion-Tech Collabs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sandy-liang-and-android.md) - [Sustainably-Focused Experimental Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/upcycled-fashion-collection.md) - [Glowing Neon Hair Collaborations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hally-hair-1.md) - [Glow-in-the-Dark Device Skins](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ddbrand-circuit-board.md) - [High Visibility Activewear Ranges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ciele-nite-rite.md)
