Model Karlie Kloss was [camouflaged in the forest](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/leaf-camo) for Patrick Demarchelier's latest shoot for [Vogue](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nft-collection2) UK. The January 2009 issue features the editorial titled â€œThe Night Shiftâ€ to showcase the easy-to-wear minidresses made popular in the sixties.

The haunting black-and-white photo shoot takes place in an evening forest with the ultra-slim Kloss becoming one with the surrounding trees.

The effect is creative and dramatic, but what else would we expect from the talented Demarchelier?

**Implications** - In society today, many individuals have encountered a sense of loss when it comes to their [relationship with nature](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/highwood-installation). Businesses that infuse their products with qualities similar to those of the environment or planet will benefit by restoring that connection for consumers.
