Dark and mysterious, just like how many people would imagine travellers to be decades ago, there is a glamor about model Leah de Wavrin that women all over the world would want to emulate. It helps that she had stylist Sarah Christie put together her elegant wardrobe. The Marie Claire UK 'Orient Express' editorial was shot by photographer Max Cardelli. It showcases a slew of demure dresses, chic coats and sparkling accessories from the likes of Dolce and Gabbana, Burberry, Valentino, Salvatore Ferragamo and [Louis Vuitton](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/la-beaut-louis-vuitton-campaign). Hair stylist Tim Crespin and makeup artist Eli Wakamatsu finished the looks. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.7/10 - Popularity: 100% | Activity: 92% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: 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 ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Romantic Train Travel:** Businesses that offer luxury train travel experiences can capitalize on the appeal of traveling by train as a romantic and unique experience. - **Fashion-train Collaborations:** Collaborations between fashion brands and luxury train companies can offer consumers a unique and elevated travel experience. - **Train Travel Photography:** There is a growing trend of train travel photography, creating opportunities for photographers and companies to provide photography packages for train travelers. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Luxury Travel:** Luxury travel companies can offer train travel experiences as a unique alternative to traditional modes of transportation. - **Fashion:** Fashion brands can explore collaborations with luxury train companies to create unique and experiential marketing campaigns. - **Photography:** Photographers can offer their services to luxury train companies or create their own train travel photography packages for consumers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Luxe European Train Routes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paris-to-portofino.md) - [Revived Contemporary Classic Trains](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/orient-express-1.md) - [Travel-Themed Book Recommendations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-reading-route.md) - [Intimate Fashion Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/velvet-heat.md) - [Modern-Day Travel Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modernday-travel.md) - [Culturally-Inspired Travel Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-travel-campaign.md) - [Timelessly Charming Fashion Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mi-amor-collection.md) - [Vibrant Lingerie Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lorette-springsummer-collection.md) - [Exploratory Rose-Centered Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eva-green.md)
