Staring celebrity offspring Jaden Smith, this vibrant editorial features a theme of gender fluidity. Rapper, actor and young philosopher Jaden Smith is known for oscillating between both men's and womenswear, this makes him the most sensible choice for the gender fluid Louis Vuitton campaign. Captured in various images, Smith is seen posing among female models Jean Campbell, Rianne Von Rompaey and Sarah Brannon. While the young women are captured in skirts and dresses from the Louis Vuitton Spring/Summer 2016 collection, Jaden also strikes a pose in a moto jacket and metal-laden skirt. Shot by photographer Bruce Weber, this campaign adds to the growing gender neutral movement in the fashion industry. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.5/10 - Popularity: 98% | Activity: 90% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Celebs](https://www.trendhunter.com/celebs) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Gender Fluid Fashion:** A trend where fashion brands break down traditional gender barriers and feature clothing that can be worn by individuals of any gender. - **Celebrity Endorsements:** A trend where brands collaborate with well-known celebrities to promote their products, creating a sense of authenticity and relatability. - **Gender Neutral Movement:** A trend within the fashion industry that embraces a non-binary concept of gender, encouraging inclusivity and diversity. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Fashion:** The industry that produces and sells clothing, accessories, and footwear. - **Photography:** The art, process, or practice of creating and capturing images using a camera. - **Advertising:** The industry that promotes products or services through various media channels to reach a target audience. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Luxe Formal Menswear Campaign](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/louis-vuitton-ss26.md) - [Stylish Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stylish-fashion-campaigns-marc-jacobs-unveils-its-spring-2025-marcworld-cam.md) - [Star Studded Luxury Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/star-studded.md) - [Cinematic Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alessandro-micheles.md) - [High-End Beauty Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/la-beaut-louis-vuitton-campaign.md) - [Contemporary Femininity Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contemporary-femininity.md) - [Cowboy-Inspired Runways](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/louis-vuitton-fw-2024.md) - [Culturally-Inspired Travel Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-travel-campaign.md) - [Intimate Spring Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/louis-vuitton-springsummer-2026.md)
