It was inspired by [Oscar Wilde's novel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/amusebouche) 'A Picture of Dorian Grey,' and was filmed by Notebook TV from the Notebook Magazine. It features female models Anastasia Portna and Alexia Palmer, and one male Rory Torrens. This short film tells the story of a man who sells his soul to the devil, who is played by both female models. This sensuous photo shoot captures the girls smothering the guy as he dances with the devil. Stylist Lauren Miller used rich colours like gold, silver, black, red and navy to create a seductive and swanky feel. Alice Luker is a freelance fashion photographer who has been featured in various magazines including Professional Photographer, IDOL Magazine and Fashion Insider. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.0/10 - Popularity: 43% | Activity: 39% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hip Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/hipfashion) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Sensuous Hotel Rooms:** Opportunities for hotels to offer unique and themed room experiences that are sensuous and seductive, targeting couples and adventurous travelers. - **Storytelling Photoshoots:** Opportunities for photographers to create photoshoots that tell a story and evoke emotion, creating unique and memorable experiences for clients. - **Gender-bending Storylines:** Opportunities for entertainment industries to experiment with gender-bending storylines, creating memorable and thought-provoking content for audiences. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Hospitality:** Hotels can tap into the demand for unique experiences by creating sensuous and themed rooms that appeal to adventurous travelers. - **Photography:** Photographers can differentiate themselves by offering storytelling photoshoots that create memorable and emotional experiences for clients. - **Entertainment:** Entertainment industries can experiment with gender-bending storylines, creating unique and thought-provoking content that resonates with audiences. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Whimsically Designed Hotel Interiors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cowley-manor-experimental.md) - [Intimate Fashion Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/velvet-heat.md) - [Industrial Intimate Hotel Interiors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mona-athens.md) - [Thriller Novel Hotel Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tempo-by-hilton-times-square.md) - [Retro-Inspired Boutique Hotels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-hoxton.md) - [Feminine Rebellion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/songs-of-siren.md) - [Immersive Hotel Art Installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hotel-art-installation.md) - [Artful Soft-Pink Dining Rooms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-gallery-at-sketch.md) - [Sexuality-Exploring Artful Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rude-arts-club.md)
