You may be familiar with that name already since Trend Hunter recently featured her '[Tattoo](http://www.trendhunter.com/trends/maelle-andre-tattoos)' portfolio, but now you can see a wider range of her skills and talent. Based in Belgium, Maelle Andre is inspired by everything from cities to art and more. I especially like her [retro/vintage style](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pgytech-retrova) that comes across in both the [fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contemporary-femininity) and the post-production. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.6/10 - Popularity: 96% | Activity: 94% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% 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 ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Vintage Revival Photography:** There's a growing interest in vintage and retro fashion, artwork and music which presents opportunities for photographers to specialize in capturing past styles and trends with a contemporary twist. - **Post-processing Artistry:** Maelle Andre's skills and talent in post-processing present an opportunity for artists to create unique and creative photographs through computer-generated enhancements. - **Nostalgia Marketing:** With a growing interest in all things vintage and retro, businesses could capitalize on nostalgia-themed marketing campaigns that appeal to this particular demographic. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion Industry:** An opportunity for the fashion industry lies in providing vintage and retro-inspired clothing and accessories that cater to the growing interest in vintage revival photography. - **Photography Industry:** As there's a growing interest in vintage photography and post-processing artistry, there is an opportunity for photographers to specialize and offer unique services in capturing past styles with contemporary twists. - **Marketing Industry:** Nostalgia marketing campaigns present an opportunity for businesses across a wide range of industries to target a particular demographic that is interested in all things vintage and retro. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Retro Doll-Themed Cameras](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barbie-film-camera.md) - [Archive-Inspired Retro Luxe Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tattoo-collection.md) - [Nostalgic Computer Graphic Cameras](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retrospekt-and-polaroid.md) - [AI-Powered Fashion Photography Platforms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/betterstudio.md) - [Vintage Photo Camera Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moodcamera.md) - [Retro Doll-inspired Cameras](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/polaroid-600-malibu-barbie-instant-film-camera.md) - [Vintage Imaging Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pgytech-retrova.md) - [Time-Altering Digital Portraits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/time-machine-feature.md) - [Unique Artistic Books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/amusebouche.md)
