Now it has been revealed that art directors have been *adding* a belly button to Karolina Kurkova’s belly so she will appear more like other Victoria’s Secret hot models. “Karolina’s body is amazing, but her belly button is unusual,” a fashion insider told Page Six magazine. “It disappears in photos, so we keep a collection of belly button shots in different positions, and Photoshop them on to her whenever she’s doing a [bikini picture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/swim-line).” Karolina isn’t bothered by it because she knows her image will be altered by some art director who has a preconception of what beauty really is. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.7/10 - Popularity: 94% | Activity: 100% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Celebs](https://www.trendhunter.com/celebs) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Virtual Body Modification:** As the use of photoshop in advertisement is becoming more apparent, there is an opportunity for virtual body modification services to edit bodies for a more conventional look. - **Natural Beauty Emphasis:** The use of photoshop and virtual body modifications opens up the opportunity for industries to shift towards a greater focus on natural beauty and diversity. - **Body Positivity Movement:** The popularity of the body positivity movement presents an opportunity for industries to reject the conventional beauty standards and embrace natural, diverse body appearances in advertisements. ### Where This Applies - **Fashion Industry:** The fashion industry can benefit from a shift towards a focus on natural and diverse bodies, moving away from conventional beauty standards and the use of photoshop in advertisements. - **Photography Industry:** The photography industry can explore new techniques and technology to capture natural and diverse bodies in photographs without relying solely on photoshop to edit them. - **Social Media Industry:** Social media platforms can engage with the body positivity movement on their platforms by promoting natural beauty, encouraging diversity, and rejecting conventional beauty standards in their advertisements. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Celebrity Padded Shapewear Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultimate-butt.md) - [Faux-Nipple Climate-Awareness Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ultimate-nipple-bra.md) - [Nostalgic Winter Intimates Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skims-holiday-campaign.md) - [Fashion-Forward Shapewear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/calvin-klein-shapewear.md) - [AI-Powered Fashion Photography Platforms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/betterstudio.md) - [AI-Generated Swimsuit Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/undiz.md) - [Human Hair-Made Prosthetic Nipples](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/prosthetic-nipples.md) - [Body Artwork-Inspired Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/body-tattoo.md) - [Unretouched Photography Books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dove-reimagine-beauty.md)
