The image series is lensed in the heart of New York city and highlights [urban street style looks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/knys-fall-2025) with a nostalgic flair. Whether borrowing inspiration from the 70s or the 90s, wardrobe stylist Samira Nasr dresses her muse in a denim-heavy wardrobe that marries comfortable and attention-grabbing pieces. Up-and-comer Londone Myers pulls of an eccentric and retro-themed wardrobe of [oversized denim jackets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/day-3-capsule-2), pleather pencil skirts and leopard-printed coats and dons oversized shades and slouchy hats as her accessories of choice. Gracing American Elle's April 2016 issue, this nostalgic street style shoot is a celebration of self-expression. The editorial's beauty looks are kept youthful and natural and are the work of hair stylist Kevin Ryan and makeup artist Lisa Storey. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.8/10 - Popularity: 87% | Activity: 79% | 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) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/stylephotography) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Nostalgic Street Style:** Opportunity for fashion brands to create collections that combine retro elements with modern streetwear. - **Urban Street Style:** Potential for retailers to curate urban street style looks that resonate with consumers seeking nostalgic fashion. - **Self-expression in Fashion:** Disruptive innovation in the fashion industry by embracing individuality and personal style through retro-inspired wardrobe choices. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion:** Opportunity for fashion brands to create collections that combine retro elements with modern streetwear. - **Retail:** Potential for retailers to curate urban street style looks that resonate with consumers seeking nostalgic fashion. - **Beauty:** Disruptive innovation in the beauty industry by embracing natural and youthful beauty looks in combination with nostalgic fashion trends. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [One-of-One Fashion Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aeliza-3.md) - [Intimate Fashion Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/velvet-heat.md) - [City-Themed Luxury Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/back-to-the-city.md) - [Festive Lifestyle Streetwear Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/autonomy-collection-3.md) - [Empowering Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/on-your-own-time.md) - [Avant-Garde Street Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/day-3-capsule-2.md) - [Feminine Rebellion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/songs-of-siren.md) - [90s Grunge-Inspired Fall Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-october-collection.md) - [Comfortably Chic Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modern-muse.md)
