# Super Skintight Knitwear Lucas Nascimento Knits Unique, Body-Conscious Outfits By Meghan Young | Published 2010-01-20 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lucas-nascimento References: [stylebubble](http://www.stylebubble.co.uk/style_bubble/2010/01/kitted-and-knitted.html) & [lucasnascimento](http://www.lucasnascimento.com/) Although I don’t own many knits (I should probably drop that plural there) I think I may have to step up my game in that department, especially if [knit designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kerisma-knits) are anything like Lucas Nascimento’s own work. Never have I thought a [knitted piece](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wool-knit) could look so slim, chic and flattering. I know they can be extremely stylish and completely comfy, but Lucas Nascimento’s designs don’t even look like the knits in my mind’s eye. [Born and raised in Brazil](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/logo-ribbed-knit-tank), Lucas Nascimento is now rooted in London, England. I wonder if anything could persuade him to set up in Canada? ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.6/10 - Popularity: 64% | Activity: 36% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hip Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/hipfashion) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Slim and Chic Knitwear:** The trend of slim and chic knitwear offers opportunities for designers to create body-conscious outfits that are both stylish and comfortable. - **Unique Knit Designs:** The trend of unique knit designs opens up possibilities for innovative and unconventional approaches to traditional knitting techniques. - **Flattering Knitted Pieces:** The trend of flattering knitted pieces allows for the creation of garments that accentuate and enhance the wearer's body shape. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Fashion:** The fashion industry can leverage the trend of slim and chic knitwear by incorporating body-conscious outfits into their collections. - **Textile:** The textile industry can explore the trend of unique knit designs by experimenting with unconventional materials and production methods. - **Retail:** The retail industry can capitalize on the trend of flattering knitted pieces by offering a wide range of garments that cater to various body shapes and sizes. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Arty Knitwear Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/arty-knitwear.md) - [Collaborative Hand-Knit Streetwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/macmahon-knitting-mills-and-beams.md) - [Comfortable Sophisticated Knit Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kerisma-knits.md) - [Hand- Knitted Joint Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beams-x-macmahon-knitting-mills.md) - [Handcrafted Fall Knitwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/atelier-solana.md) - [Timeless Knit Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mudana-clothing.md) - [Athlete Swimwear Knit Fusion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tom-daley-swimwear.md) - [Architectural-Focused 3D-Knitted Products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/infiknit.md) - [Understated Men's Knitwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/herdsman-sweater-collection.md)
