# Monochromatic 90s Tribute Editorials This Mark Elzey Jr Fashion Shoot is a Flirty Flashback By Anne Booth | Published 2013-10-10 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mark-elzey-jr References: [nextdoormodel](http://www.nextdoormodel.com/heather-michaels/) & [markelzeyjr](http://www.markelzeyjr.com/) This Mark Elzey Jr editorial is completely [monochromatic](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/black-tag-collection) but is telling of the style and the spunk of [90s fashion looks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-october-collection). The model is very Marilyn Monroe-esque as she sports a blonde pin-up hairstyle with dark lips. The portrait shots show close-ups of the model's seductive expressions as the white walls are covered in drip marks adding to the grunge looks. The model wears a white blazer that stands out among the dirty environment. She also wears high-waisted pants with classic black pumps. The expressions give off a damsel-in-distress vibe as her doe-eyed looks are flash frozen by the camera lens. Mark Elzey Jr uses wardrobe stylist HollyJane Cornell in order to create [classic looks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wildest-ones-yet) that bring the viewer back in time. There is no color needed in this shoot as the fashion and makeup speaks to the 90s culture. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.9/10 - Popularity: 95% | Activity: 75% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial - 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 ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Monochromatic Fashion:** Opportunity for designers to create modern, monochromatic fashion collections that pay tribute to past eras. - **90s-inspired Makeup:** Opportunity for cosmetics brands to develop 90s-inspired makeup lines that capture the edgy and bold looks of the decade. - **Nostalgic Fashion Photography:** Opportunity for photographers to create editorial shoots that evoke nostalgia by capturing iconic fashion eras. ### Where This Applies - **Fashion Design:** Fashion designers can capitalize on the trend of monochromatic fashion by creating collections that combine modern design with a retro aesthetic. - **Cosmetics:** Cosmetics brands can tap into the 90s-inspired makeup trend by developing products that cater to consumers who seek bold and edgy looks. - **Photography:** Photographers can explore the demand for nostalgic fashion photography by offering their services to brands and publications looking to evoke specific fashion eras in their imagery. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Monochrome Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jiyongkim-fw25.md) - [Statement-Making Fall Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-fall-2025.md) - [Nostalgic Fragrance Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/iconic-90s-looks.md) - [Modern Minimalist Apparel Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-latest-summer-edit.md) - [90s Grunge-Inspired Fall Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-october-collection.md) - [Gingham-Forward Apparel Edits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/maison-amorys-gingham-edit.md) - [Stealthy Modern Monochromatic Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/black-tag-collection.md) - [Voting-Themed Fashion Ads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/youve-got-the-power.md) - [Stylish Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stylish-fashion-campaigns-marc-jacobs-unveils-its-spring-2025-marcworld-cam.md)
