Brazilian-based designer and illustrator Pedro Nekoi has created a series of stunning collages using various high fashion advertisements.

"Vibrant," "dynamic" and "electrifying" might be words you would use to describe his [psychedelic works of art](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-psychedelia). He embellishes the advertisements with retro and futuristic illustrations of people, animals, plants and the like. Needless to say, it's a little more sophisticated than the cut-and-paste DIY collages we used to make before [Pinterest](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/phone-free-experience) became a thing.

Each of these colorful, animated collages could pass as a stand alone advertisement for a fashion house that isn't afraid to go in a trippier direction. The [Versace](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/taichi-sakura) advertisement featuring Lady Gaga, in particular, looks like it's reflective of the exaggerated atelier's aesthetic.
