# Avant-Garde Repo Editorials This Sequins-Filled Vogue Italia Series is Called ‘The Collectio By Lacey-Jane Walsh | Published 2014-01-04 | Pop Culture Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-collections References: [fashioncow](http://fashioncow.com/2014/01/riccardo-tisci/) & [vogue.it](http://www.vogue.it/) This shimmering fashion series for Vogue Italia is entitled ‘The Collections’, and features avant-garde fashion and usually attractive repo men. The slender women in this series sport sequins covered dresses, bright feathered accessories and metallic apparel. The looks seen in this series are extremely eccentric. All of the men featured in this series are sporting dirty jumpsuits, heavy work gloves and other tattered apparel. These looks completely contrast the women’s wear found in this series. When viewers consider the name of this series, it appears as though the men in these shots are hunky fashion repo workers. Some of these avant-garde fashion photos feature sequin-covered masks, while others incorporate large eye-catching headpieces. These peculiar fashion photos blend unusual evening wear with dingy settings in an interesting way. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.1/10 - Popularity: 50% | Activity: 36% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Media](https://www.trendhunter.com/media) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Avant-garde Fashion Trends:** Opportunity for fashion designers to create extravagant and unique garments that blend unusual materials and styles. - **Fashion Editorial Photography:** Potential for photographers to showcase creative, imaginative and unconventional fashion in editorials that push boundaries. - **Fashion Repo Industry:** Disruptive innovation opportunity for the fashion industry to incorporate unexpected themes and characters in marketing and advertising campaigns. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion:** Innovative opportunities for designers to create cutting edge styles and push boundaries of traditional fashion norms. - **Photography:** Potential for photographers and photo editors to break norms and showcase unconventional fashion in editorial and advertising campaigns. - **Marketing & Advertising:** Chance to disrupt standard advertising techniques and create unique campaigns using unusual themes and imagery. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Archetypal Fashion Debuts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/la-famiglia-collection.md) - [Luxury Resort Apparel Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteurs-resort-2025-collection.md) - [Punk Rock-Informed Fall Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/superculture-collection.md) - [Statement-Making Fall Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-fall-2025.md) - [Modern Minimalist Apparel Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-latest-summer-edit.md) - [Experimental Fall Wardrobe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/khaotique-noir.md) - [Cinematic Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alessandro-micheles.md) - [Futuristic Statement Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-future-is-not-set.md) - [Pattern-Heavy Fashion Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/needles-new-collection.md)
