# Freaky Fashionista Photo-Ops This Oleksiy Zalevskiy Show is Eccentric By Josh Triantafilou | Published 2012-03-20 | Unique Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oleksiy-zalevskiy References: [buzzfeed](http://www.buzzfeed.com/gavon/a-dress-made-of-dudes-in-diapers) Ukranian fashion designer Oleksiy Zalevskiy has no problem taking artistic licenses, as evidenced by the show for this year’s [Ukrainian Fashion Week](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ukrainian-brand-rbtnk). While [eccentricities and fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wild-rose-sparrow) are no strangers to one another, Oleksiy Zalevskiy raised the bar this year. Photos from the show depict a woman with a Napoleonic bicorne hat-like hair-do, wearing a dress the size of a small car. In subsequent photos, the fabric of the dress is drawn away to reveal a cage upon which the lady sits; within the cage is a gaggle of man-servants wearing nothing but loincloths—that’s service! Oleksiy Zalevskiy certainly knows how to [make a scene](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dirty-looks). Subtlety is often to be preferred in many contexts; however, sometimes it’s more effective to grab people’s attention in more direct ways. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.4/10 - Popularity: 51% | Activity: 44% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Unique](https://www.trendhunter.com/unique) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Eccentric Fashion:** Disruptive innovation opportunities lie in pushing the boundaries of traditional fashion and embracing eccentricity to captivate audiences. - **Artistic Licenses:** Exploring unconventional approaches to design allows for disruptive innovation in the fashion industry, making a bold statement and attracting attention. - **Spectacle Fashion Shows:** Creating visually captivating and unconventional fashion shows offers disruptive innovation opportunities to engage and surprise audiences. ### Where This Applies - **Fashion Design:** The fashion design industry can explore disruptive innovation by incorporating eccentric elements and pushing the boundaries of traditional fashion. - **Event Management:** Event management industry can embrace disruptive innovation by organizing unconventional and visually striking fashion shows that leave a lasting impression on attendees. - **Creative Marketing:** Creative marketing professionals have an opportunity for disruptive innovation by leveraging eccentric fashion as a means of capturing attention and creating memorable experiences. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Randomness-Inspired Designer Footwear Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beauty-in-chaos.md) - [Contemporary Military Fashion Brands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ukrainian-brand-rbtnk.md) - [Wild Animal-Decorated Gowns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/schiaparelli-lion-head.md) - [Disruptive Fashion Art Galleries](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dirty-looks.md) - [Sustainably-Focused Experimental Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/upcycled-fashion-collection.md) - [Statement-Making Oatmeal Outfits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/porridge-dress.md) - [Politically-Inspired Runway Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selkies-the-libertine-collection.md) - [Experimental Fall Wardrobe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/khaotique-noir.md) - [Edgy Backpack-Centric Fashion Shows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/at-the-edge-of-time.md)
