# Giant Shoulder Thorns Mexican Designer ‘Teamo' Makes Pointed Fashion Statement By Geebee Micro | Published 2009-05-23 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/outrageous-peaked-shoulders-mexican-designers-teamo-make-pointed-fashion-st References: [pipeline.refinery29](http://pipeline.refinery29.com/trend_spotting/mexican_design_duo_teamo_makes.php) It’s hard to tell if “Teamo” created these exaggerated shoulder thorns for a regular party, Comicon or a [Halloween bash](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aldi-and-elladoesfx). Either way, they’ve definitely drawn attention to the peaked shoulder style, which has made a dramatic comeback ever since [Maison Martin Margiela](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/replica-suit) made them popular again in 2007. I’ll also bet these shoulder thorn designs would do great in Transylvania! The Count would definitely approve. These are a lot of fun, and when you think about it, shoulder thorns could be worn at a number of functions that would really work. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.0/10 - Popularity: 54% | Activity: 58% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hip Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/hipfashion) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Peaked Shoulder Style:** The exaggerated shoulder thorns designed by Teamo have brought attention to peaked shoulder style creating a disruptive innovation opportunity in the fashion industry. - **Statement Accessories:** Teamo's creation of exaggerated shoulder thorns highlights the trend of statement-making accessories, offering a disruptive innovation opportunity in the accessories industry. - **Cultural and Historical References:** The use of shoulder thorns in fashion draws parallels to cultural and historical references, creating a disruptive innovation opportunity in the cultural industry. ### Where This Applies - **Fashion:** The use of shoulder thorns in fashion creates a disruptive innovation opportunity to tap into the trend of creating statement pieces. - **Accessories:** The creation of exaggerated shoulder thorns opens up disruptive innovation opportunities to create more statement-making accessories. - **Cultural Industry:** The use of cultural and historical references in fashion creates disruptive innovation opportunities to cater to a market that values these references in fashion design. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Avant-Garde Radish Accessories](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/radish-hat.md) - [Body Artwork-Inspired Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/body-tattoo.md) - [Gothic Style Perforated Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stomp-clog.md) - [LED-Infused Festival Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tinsel-arcade.md) - [Couture Ketchup Dresses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/la-robe-ketchup.md) - [Bird Feather-Inspired Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kiss-boots.md) - [Ceiba Tree-Inspired Spiked Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ceiba-series.md) - [Western-Inspired Statement Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/melissa-x-maldito.md) - [Monster-Adorned Capsule Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/capsule-collections.md)
