Mythical storytelling has been a part of human culture for thousands of years. Now, some modern companies have implemented the use of their own [modern mythical stories to sell fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/la-famiglia-collection). This is the case for the company [Daydream Nation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/daydream-library) and their ‘Good Night Deer’ Autumn/Winter (A/W) 2008 clothing collection.

Apparel in the A/W 2008 ‘Good Night Deer’ collection was made from modern and vintage fashions. In the Daydream Nation catalog story, designs in the pages are showcased along with a myth about man and deer. Sometimes off-the-wall fashions are used, but the ones actually in the collection include the catalog number.

‘Good Night Deer’ by Daydream Nation is, in my opinion, a wonderful and unique form of entertainment. Not just for the short myth told throughout its pages, but for its [eye catching fashion photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alessandro-micheles).
