Lensed by photographer Guenter Parth, D & G’s focus is to pay tribute to the bejeweled accessories that were such a huge part of the fashion-conscious jet set in the 1980’s and 1990’s. View on Fashion refers to diamonds and pearls as “those fascinating cult objects and icons of luxury and perfection.” The photos were done with mannequins and you can find the book in Dolce & Gabbana stores for $270. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.3/10 - Popularity: 49% | Activity: 11% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Naughty](https://www.trendhunter.com/naughty) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Precious Stones:** There are disruptive innovation opportunities in the development of sustainable and lab-grown precious stones. - **Fashion Accessories:** Opportunities for disruptive innovation exist in creating customizable, tech-integrated fashion accessories that incorporate precious stones. - **Vintage Fashion:** Disruptive innovation opportunities lie in the revival of vintage fashion trends that emphasize the use of pearls and diamonds. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion:** The fashion industry can explore disruptive innovation by incorporating sustainable and lab-grown precious stones in their designs. - **Jewelry:** In the jewelry industry, disruptive innovation can involve the integration of technology with precious stones to create unique and personalized pieces. - **Publishing:** The publishing industry can take advantage of the trend by creating books that showcase the history and significance of precious stones in fashion. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Haute Holiday Purse Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/emerald-dolce-box-bag.md) - [Upscale Bridal Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/diamonds-pearls.md) - [Extravagant Jewelry Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shapes-of-extraleganza.md) - [Gem-Studded Songwriter Rings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bandana-royale.md) - [Reimagined Luxury Jewelry Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bird-on-a-pearl.md) - [Limited-Edition Luxury Necklaces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dior-necklace.md) - [Luxury Jewelry Collection Expansions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/couleur-vivante.md) - [Heritage-Inspired High-End Jewelry Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heritageinspired-highend-jewelry.md) - [Pearl-Accented Modern Jewelry Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wonder-pearl.md)
