# Boldly Striped Editorials Marcelia Freesz Stars in Marie Claire Brazil's November Issue By Vasiliki Marapas | Published 2014-11-05 | Pop Culture Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/marie-claire-brazil-november References: [wearesodroee](http://wearesodroee.com/2014/11/04/as-listras-da-estacao/) & [revistamarieclaire.globo](http://revistamarieclaire.globo.com/) Marcelia Freesz stars in the 'As Listras da Estação' editorial (which translates to 'The Stripes Station') for Marie Claire Brazil's November 2014 issue. Have you every heard someone helpfully offer that you "shouldn't wear horizontal stripes because they'll make you appear wider?" Well, no offense to them, because I'm sure their intentions were good, but Freesz has chosen to throw that [archaic fashion rule](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selkies-the-libertine-collection) out the window. She wears stripes of all different sizes, directions and colors with unabashed glee. To make things even more [visually appealing](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pixelated), Freesz is also surrounded by stripes of all different sizes, directions and colors. If this editorial is any indication, stripes are coming back in a big way for fall. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.1/10 - Popularity: 88% | Activity: 58% | 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) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Media](https://www.trendhunter.com/media) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Bold Stripes Fashion Trend:** The resurgence of bold stripes in the fashion industry presents opportunities for designers to create innovative and visually appealing striped garments. - **Diverse Stripe Patterns:** The acceptance of diverse stripe patterns challenges conventional fashion rules and provides an opportunity for retailers to offer unique and inclusive clothing options. - **Striped Editorial Shoots:** The popularity of striped editorial shoots allows photographers and stylists to experiment with bold patterns and create visually striking fashion images. ### Where This Applies - **Fashion Retail:** The bold stripes trend opens up opportunities for fashion retailers to showcase a variety of striped garments that cater to diverse consumer preferences. - **Fashion Design:** The resurgence of bold stripes provides fashion designers with a chance to innovate by incorporating unique stripe patterns into their collections and challenging traditional design norms. - **Fashion Photography:** The popularity of striped editorial shoots creates a demand for photographers to capture visually appealing images that highlight the versatility and creativity of striped fashion. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Local Hotspot Fashion Shoots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heartbeat-campaign.md) - [Stylish Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stylish-fashion-campaigns-marc-jacobs-unveils-its-spring-2025-marcworld-cam.md) - [Brazilian Craft-Inspired Handmade Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vero-25.md) - [Brazil-Inspired Minimal Sculpted Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/logo-ribbed-knit-tank.md) - [Playful Spring-Forward Statements](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/marc-jacobs-charm-collection.md) - [Print-Focused Swim Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fioretta.md) - [Resort-Ready Apparel Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/marie-oliver.md) - [Statement-Making Fall Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-fall-2025.md) - [Spring Fashion Blooms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reformation-spring-2025.md)
