Paying tribute to late [rock and roll icon](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lugz-x-ozzy-osbourne) David Bowie, this image series reintroduces a new generation to the star's daring style aesthetic -- consisting of [futuristic silhouettes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/day-3-capsule-2), plenty of sequins and sculptural hair that is sported by Elite model Kaleb. Styling for Yung is the work of Prince Franco who collaborates with hair stylist Jeorge Napoleon and makeup artist Juan Jaar. While Napoleon opts for swept platinum blonde locks, Jaar experiments with buffed skin and bleached brow looks. This rocker homage editorial is lensed inside a stark studio setting and combines [bold style choices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jiyongkim-fw25) with more subdued and dramatic black and white imagery. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.4/10 - Popularity: 83% | Activity: 40% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/stylephotography) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Rocker Homage:** Opportunity for fashion brands to create tribute collections to iconic rock stars. - **Futuristic Silhouettes:** Opportunity for designers to incorporate futuristic elements into their clothing lines. - **Sculptural Hair:** Opportunity for haircare companies to develop new products that create sculptural hairstyles. ### Where This Applies - **Fashion:** Opportunity for fashion brands to pay tribute to iconic rock stars and incorporate bold style choices. - **Beauty:** Opportunity for makeup and haircare companies to experiment with unique and dramatic looks. - **Photography:** Opportunity for photographers to create editorial shoots that pay homage to cultural icons. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Rockstar-Inspired Instant Film Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/for-the-rebel-rebels.md) - [Singer-Led Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pour-homme-and-neighborhood.md) - [Glamorous Rockstar-Inspired Dolls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/david-bowie-doll.md) - [British Youth-Culture Photography Books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/home-and-away.md) - [Iconic Singer-Starring Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/saint-laurent-and-diana-ross.md) - [Luxurious Ephemeral Art Galleries](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sho-shibuya.md) - [Iconic Band Apparel Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/freaks-store-2.md) - [Subculture-Themed Generational Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wildest-ones-yet.md) - [British Singer-Starred Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jw-anderson-4.md)
