# Smoldering Alchemy Lookbooks The Mishka Fall/Winter Lookbook Reads Your Tarot By Vasiliki Marapas | Published 2014-08-07 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mishka-fall-winter References: [highsnobiety](http://www.highsnobiety.com/2014/08/07/mishka-fallwinter-2014-lookbook/) & [mishkanyc](https://mishkanyc.com/bloglin/2014/08/05/fall-14-now-available-decadence-death) The Mishka Fall/Winter 2014 lookbook is styled in the theme of [tarot cards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clairvoyance-makeup). The collection, which has been designed around themes of decadence and death, signifies the riches of the mortal world with pieces made from [luxurious leather and gold](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/saint-mxxxxxx). However, there's a supernatural element to the collection as well; one which lauds metaphysical entities, creatures, mummies, death and war. In this collection, we see that [death and decadence](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paranoid-fw25) go hand in hand. At the very least, the aforementioned riches of the mortal world only serve to remind us of our impermanence. The tarot encompasses both themes smoothly; as the website describes, "It's a game of divination, where fortune and demise lay behind every card. Pick your card, pick your outfit, choose your future." ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.2/10 - Popularity: 86% | Activity: 61% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, 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 ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Decadence and Death:** Opportunity for brands to create collections that combine luxurious materials with dark and supernatural themes. - **Metaphysical Fashion:** Potential for designs that celebrate metaphysical entities, creatures, and themes of death and war. - **Tarot-inspired Styling:** Possibility for fashion lookbooks and campaigns that incorporate tarot cards as a source of inspiration. ### Where This Applies - **Fashion:** Fashion brands can explore new collections and campaigns that fuse luxury with dark and supernatural elements. - **Metaphysical Goods:** Opportunity for businesses to create products that celebrate metaphysical themes and entities. - **Online Divination:** Potential for online platforms or apps that offer divination services inspired by tarot cards for personal style and outfit choices. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Experimental Fall Wardrobe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/khaotique-noir.md) - [Conceptual Memory-Themed Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paranoid-fw25.md) - [Fall Technical Fashion Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/atom-collection.md) - [Classic Fall-Ready Technical Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mki-miyuki-zoku-11.md) - [Community-Honoring Eerie Graphic Merchandise](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/boiler-room.md) - [Scrapbook-Inspired Fall Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/creative-class-uniform.md) - [Clairvoyance-Inspired High-End Makeup Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clairvoyance-makeup.md) - [Seasonal Fashion Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/siegelman-stable-1.md) - [Punk Rock-Informed Fall Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/superculture-collection.md)
