Subjects range in age, income level and personal interests expansively -- offering viewers an insight that's much more inclusive and telling in comparison to the many other [street fashion blogs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hangr) that are online. Not only do the style portraits reveal each individual's unique flair, but it also showcases how differently people from other cultures express their sense of self. As the project's photographers explained to Bored Panda, each image shows how each piece of clothing "keeps its distinctive features: the fabric, the design, the motif, the cut -- all these style elements portray a culture and how, for instance, it has been shaped throughout history by foreign influences." ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.1/10 - Popularity: 98% | Activity: 76% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/stylephotography) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Diverse Style Portraits:** Capturing style portraits from diverse cultures offers a more inclusive and representative view of fashion. - **Inclusive Street Fashion:** Highlighting everyday people from various backgrounds and showcasing their unique fashion choices disrupts the traditional street fashion blogging industry. - **Cultural Expression Through Clothing:** Exploring how people from different cultures express their sense of self through clothing presents opportunities for cultural appreciation and understanding. ### Who This Affects Most - **Fashion Photography:** The growing demand for diverse style portraits opens up new opportunities for photographers to capture unique perspectives and represent various cultures. - **Social Media and Influencer Marketing:** Instagram accounts like 'Around the World in 80 Styles' demonstrate the power of inclusive content in attracting a diverse and engaged audience, offering potential for influencer collaborations and brand partnerships. - **Cross-cultural Fashion Publications:** Publications focusing on cross-cultural fashion and style can leverage the popularity of 'Around the World in 80 Styles' to provide readers with a more diverse and inclusive representation of global fashion trends. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Offbeat Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/asos-inspired-by.md) - [Travel-Inspired Canvas Paintings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-passport-series.md) - [Identity-Exploring Clothing](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shapes-we-take.md) - [Accessible Fashion Tours](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/walmart-style-tour.md) - [Personalized Fashion Advice Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/urban-stylers.md) - [Culturally-Inspired Travel Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-travel-campaign.md) - [Travel Story Visuals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/travel-wrapped.md) - [Fashion Recap Artful Books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fashion-in-2023.md) - [Stylized Portrait Generators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/face-to-all.md)
