And like any other diva in show business, her wardrobe isn’t safe from fashion-hungry eyes. Last week, Macy’s downtown Minneapolis store held a Glamorama party to showcase a retrospective of the stylish Muppet’s finest couture pieces. A benefit for the Children’s Cancer Research Fund, the Glamorama party gave attendees glass-case views of Miss Piggy’s high-fashion ensembles which included a [Burberry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/burberrys-holiday-campaign) quilted gold trench, a custom-made blue kimono by Jason Wu, and a peacock feather dress by [Prada](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/galleria-handbag). Also exhibited were magazine covers, calendars, and photos of Miss Piggy’s most memorable fashion moments and celeb spoofs – for instance, the infamous Guess Jeans parody-ad with the “mature” Miss Piggy imitating Claudia Schiffer. The Glamorama party is also held in the Chicago Macy’s this week. Word on the street is that the porcine-style princess herself will be attending in a sleek black number - to be designed by none other than Marc Jacobs! ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.4/10 - Popularity: 85% | Activity: 39% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Celebs](https://www.trendhunter.com/celebs) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Fashion Exhibition Events:** Opportunity for fashion brands to showcase their collections in unique and engaging ways. - **Celebrity Collaborations:** Collaborating with well-known personalities to create exclusive fashion lines. - **Nostalgia Fashion:** Bringing back iconic fashion moments and incorporating them into modern designs. ### Who This Affects Most - **Fashion:** Fashion brands can leverage the popularity of celebrity collaborations and exhibition events to increase brand awareness and drive sales. - **Event Planning:** Event planning companies can specialize in organizing fashion exhibition events, providing a platform for brands to showcase their collections. - **Retail:** Retailers can tap into the nostalgia fashion trend by offering vintage-inspired clothing and accessories. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Extravagant Luxury Pop-Ups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/giant-hamilton-handbag.md) - [Hip Hop Fashion Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fresh-fly-and-fabulous.md) - [Cartoon Duck-Inspired Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/disney-x-karl-lagerfeld.md) - [Couture Ketchup Dresses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/la-robe-ketchup.md) - [Fashion Legend Barbie Dolls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/claudia-schiffer-barbie.md) - [Chic Whimsical-Film Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-wizard-of-oz-capsule.md) - [Quirky Luxury Collabs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moschino-x-milano-handbag.md) - [Wild Animal-Decorated Gowns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/schiaparelli-lion-head.md) - [Potato Sack Couture Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/haute-potato-collection.md)
