Styled by Luis Fiod and shot by photographer Henrique Gendre, the Brazilian bombshell shows her homeland some love on the cover of Elle Brazil's August issue. Donning a sheer purple top and sequined violet bottoms, the supermodel demonstrates how to pull off a single color head-to-toe. Of course, being a gorgeous model doesn't hurt either. The Brazil native has been all over the fashion world lately, snagging magazine covers like this Raquel Zimmermann Elle Brazil August 2011 shoot, as well as campaigns with some of the biggest names in the industry including Lanvin, Alexander McQueen, Jimmy Choo, and Alexander Wang. This 40-page editorial spread was shot by photographer Bob Wolfenson and shows Zimmermann modeling some of the season's hottest trends while sporting a retro curled coif. If this past season in fashion has taught the world anything, it's that Raquel Zimmermann is definitely the "it" model of the moment. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.3/10 - Popularity: 90% | Activity: 90% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial - 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 - **Retro Chic Fashion:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in creating new designs and styles inspired by retro fashion. - **Monochromatic Styling:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in developing new techniques and products for creating head-to-toe monochromatic looks. - **Model-driven Marketing:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in leveraging popular models like Raquel Zimmermann for brand campaigns and advertising. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in the fashion industry to incorporate retro chic trends and monochromatic styling in their collections. - **Photography:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in photography techniques and styling to capture the essence of retro fashion trends. - **Marketing and Advertising:** Opportunity for disruptive innovation in leveraging popular models like Raquel Zimmermann for brand campaigns and advertising strategies. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Exploratory Rose-Centered Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eva-green.md) - [Modern-Day Travel Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/modernday-travel.md) - [Cinematic Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alessandro-micheles.md) - [Contemporary Femininity Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contemporary-femininity.md) - [Stylish Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stylish-fashion-campaigns-marc-jacobs-unveils-its-spring-2025-marcworld-cam.md) - [Brazilian Craft-Inspired Handmade Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vero-25.md) - [Local Hotspot Fashion Shoots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heartbeat-campaign.md) - [Authentic Fashion House Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/springsummer-2024.md) - [High-End Beauty Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/la-beaut-louis-vuitton-campaign.md)
