With a well-calculated outfit that has the right attention to detail, however, the crazy offering has the potential to become an eye-catching and fashion-forward ensemble with an avant-garde flair. Dubbed the ‘Transparent Zip Front Trouser,’ the PrettyLittleThing styles its unconventional pants “with Love Island’s [thong bikini bottom](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-swim-collection) for a daring, slightly girlish look.” The British retailer makes the item accessible to everyone by setting it at the exceptionally reasonable price of $40 USD. In addition, the transparent trousers are made to be waterproof, which definitely adds a sense of functionality to the unconventional design. Daring, stylish and provocative, PrettyLittleThing’s offering is bound to turn some heads and raise some eyebrows. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.6/10 - Popularity: 97% | Activity: 93% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Life-Stages](https://www.trendhunter.com/life-stages) > [Youth](https://www.trendhunter.com/youth) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Transparent Fashion:** The trend of transparent fashion presents an opportunity for designers to create avant-garde and eye-catching ensembles. - **Functional Fashion:** The rise of waterproof clothing opens doors for innovative designs that combine style and functionality. - **Unconventional Styling:** The popularity of unconventional outfits encourages fashion brands to experiment with bold and daring looks. ### Where This Applies - **Fashion Retail:** Fashion retailers can capitalize on the transparent fashion trend by offering curated collections of avant-garde clothing. - **Textile Manufacturing:** Textile manufacturers have the opportunity to develop waterproof fabrics that can be used in functional fashion designs. - **Fashion Styling:** Fashion stylists can explore unconventional and bold styling techniques to cater to the demand for eye-catching ensembles. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Fashion-Forward Ski Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ski-collection.md) - [Essential Weather-Resistant Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pieces-for-rainy-days.md) - [One-Legged Luxury Fashion Jeans](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/onelegged-jean.md) - [Purposefully Stained Luxe Trousers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pee-stain-denim.md) - [Purposefully Distressed Luxe Tights](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/destroyed-tights.md) - [Towel-Resembling Luxe Skirts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/towel-skirt.md) - [Avant-Garde Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/la-la-anthony.md) - [Sleek See-Through Suitcases](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/translucent-luggage.md) - [Cherry Red Winter Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cherry-girl.md)
