# Exotic ‘70s Fashion The Roelene by Walter Maurice Shoot is Boho Retro By Meghan Young | Published 2012-03-03 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/roelene-by-walter-maurice References: [fashionising](http://www.fashionising.com/pictures/b--luxurious-side-of-an-era-21221.html) & [waltermaurice](http://www.waltermaurice.com/) The photo shoot starring Roelene by Walter Maurice doesn’t just showcase ‘70s-inspired fashion, but also looks like it was shot in the ‘70s. Although saturated in color, there is a vintage tinge over each image that makes the fashion and the photos look even more retro than they actually are. Roelene by Walter Maurice models [feminine styles that are elegantly bohemian](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kallmeyer-resort-2026-collection). Many of the pieces were scoured from vintage shops. Designer Jess Cervonaro, graduate of [East Sydney Design Studio](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sessions-art-club), also contributed to the photo shoot. From knits and wools to delicate sheers and [floral prints](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frankies-bikinis-keepsakes-collection), the fashion perfectly captures the essence of the long-gone era. Maurice elaborates, “Using red, royal blues and lime yellow illustrates the ‘70s fun and inventive side.” ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.5/10 - Popularity: 86% | Activity: 71% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## 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 Fashion:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop a clothing line that combines vintage styles with modern materials and techniques. - **Bohemian Style:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create an online marketplace for curated vintage fashion, focusing on bohemian-inspired pieces. - **Nostalgic Photography:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop a mobile app that applies retro filters to photos, catering to the growing popularity of vintage aesthetics. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion Retail:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Introduce a subscription-based service that sends customers a curated selection of retro-inspired fashion items every month. - **Photography Equipment:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Design and manufacture camera lenses that replicate the distinct vintage look seen in the Roelene by Walter Maurice shoot. - **Fashion E-commerce:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop an augmented reality (AR) try-on platform that allows customers to virtually try on and purchase retro-inspired fashion items online. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Contemporary Femininity Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contemporary-femininity.md) - [Exploratory Rose-Centered Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eva-green.md) - [Whimsical Feminine Runway Shows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wild-rose-sparrow.md) - [Timelessly Charming Fashion Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mi-amor-collection.md) - [Cinematic Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alessandro-micheles.md) - [Local Hotspot Fashion Shoots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heartbeat-campaign.md) - [Luxury Resort Apparel Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteurs-resort-2025-collection.md) - [Dreamy Apparel Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frankies-bikinis-keepsakes-collection.md) - [70s-Themed Tiled Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/amore-mio.md)
