Reminding me of [Little House](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/asics-x-little-tokyo) on the Prairie, the S/S 10 collection features some out-there designs. Not a stranger to eccentricity, Lu Flux features [feather-like frocks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wild-rose-sparrow), [patchwork dresses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iclothing) and even a giant bird’s head on one of the models. All in all, the Edinburgh graduate Lu Flux makes a kooky cartoonish collection for S/S 10. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.9/10 - Popularity: 26% | Activity: 52% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hip Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/hipfashion) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Eccentric Fashion:** Creating cartoonish and out-there designs in fashion. - **Patchwork Clothing:** Integrating patchwork designs in clothing collections. - **Animal-inspired Fashion:** Incorporating animal-inspired elements in fashion designs. ### Where This Applies - **Fashion:** Innovative fashion designers can create disruptive designs by pushing the boundaries of what is considered normal. - **Textiles:** Innovative textile makers can create unique materials that work well with eccentric fashion designs. - **Costume Design:** Eccentric fashion trends can inspire uses in costume design for film and theatre. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Whimsical Spring Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/Anna-Suis-SpringSummer-2025.md) - [Bold Performance Fabric Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unified-field-fabric.md) - [Whimsical Feminine Runway Shows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wild-rose-sparrow.md) - [Whimsical Couture Settings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chanel-spring-summer-2026.md) - [Sustainably-Focused Experimental Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/upcycled-fashion-collection.md) - [Avant Garde Seasonal Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/brucolic.md) - [Politically-Inspired Runway Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selkies-the-libertine-collection.md) - [Brazilian Craft-Inspired Handmade Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vero-25.md) - [Spring Fashion Blooms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reformation-spring-2025.md)
