American actress Taraji P. Henson, who currently stars in 'Empire,' can be seen on the cover of the latest issue of [Allure Magazine](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tom-ford-runway-lip-color). She brings a [fierce sense of glamor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/how-lovely-to-be-a-woman) to its pages that's reminiscent of her character on the hit television show. Yet she takes on a [retro look](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/il-pranzo-campaign) by channeling the 70s.

Shot by photographer Carter Smith, Taraji P. Henson opens up about her career and what she's avoided along the way, “I always wanted to be known for my work. Not who I dated. Not who I slept with….I have a gift, and my gift is acting. I started in the business at 26 with a kid, so I was smart enough to know reality from fantasy. I didn’t want to blur the lines. This is a job that I have to do. I cannot get caught up in it. And if I sleep with these guys, why would they want to work with me again?”

## Key Themes

### What Makes This Trend Stand Out

- **Vintage Fashion:** Opportunity to create a line of retro-inspired clothing that captures the glamour of the 70s era.
- **Glamorous Editorials:** Potential for magazines to produce more high-fashion photo shoots that evoke a sense of old Hollywood glamour.
- **Celebrity Influence:** Opportunity for brands to collaborate with influential celebrities to bring a touch of retro fashion to their products.

### Sectors Adopting This

- **Fashion:** Fashion designers can draw inspiration from the 70s era to create new and unique collections.
- **Publishing:** Magazines can tap into the 70s aesthetic to create visually stunning editorial spreads that resonate with readers.
- **Entertainment:** Entertainment companies can leverage the popularity of vintage fashion to create TV shows and movies set in the 70s era.
