But now it seems like the magazine's publishers are taking it to the next level with their highly incendiary March 2009 cover. Labeled "Transformer" and with a tag line that reads, "Meet fashion's boys who are girls who like girls to be boys," the [fiercely erotic cover](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mariemurs-judge-me-guilty) featuring models Ash and Eliza is an unapologetic [celebration of androgyny and gender dissociation](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shapes-we-take). The images from the Transformer issue we are spotlighting today are an untamed mixture of a very [wild circus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/asos-inspired-by), with scantily clad revelers, a bit of S&M and an explosive rave. The models showcased are Cole Mohr, the wild Alice Dellal, Luke Worrall, Daisy Low and the socialite-turned model, Pixie Geldorf. The photos were taken by Matt Irwin and Nicola Formichetti did the styling. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.0/10 - Popularity: 53% | Activity: 29% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Naughty](https://www.trendhunter.com/naughty) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Gender Dissociation:** Opportunities for disruptive innovation include developing gender-neutral fashion and beauty products. - **Androgynous Fashion:** Opportunities for disruptive innovation include promoting gender transcending images and inclusive advertising. - **Boundary-pushing Imagery:** Opportunities for disruptive innovation include embracing edgy and provocative visuals in advertising and marketing campaigns. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion:** A disruptive innovation opportunity in fashion is considering gender neutral clothing and marketing. - **Beauty:** A disruptive innovation opportunity in beauty is creating products that cater to a diverse range of gender expressions. - **Advertising:** A disruptive innovation opportunity in advertising is exploring edgier and more boundary-pushing imagery that appeals to a diverse range of audiences. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Naughty Holiday Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/diesels-xxxmas.md) - [Disruptive Fashion Art Galleries](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dirty-looks.md) - [Feminine Rebellion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/songs-of-siren.md) - [Sexuality-Exploring Artful Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rude-arts-club.md) - [Body Paint Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/miley-cyrus-maison-margiela.md) - [Dynamic NFT Magazines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vogue-singapore-magazine.md) - [Politically-Inspired Runway Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selkies-the-libertine-collection.md) - [Intimate Fashion Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/velvet-heat.md) - [Cinematic Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alessandro-micheles.md)
