# Haunting Sisterly Editorials This U Magazine Photo Shoot is Inspired by 'The Virgin Suicides' By Leslie Chen | Published 2013-02-11 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/u-magazine References: [fashioncopious.typepad](http://fashioncopious.typepad.com/fashioncopious/2013/02/-virgin-suicides-by-krzysztof-wyzynski-for-umag-editorial.html) & [umagmag](http://umagmag.com/2013/02/virgin-suicides/) Inspired by the Sofia Coppola directed film The Virgin Suicides, originally a book by Jeffrey Eugenides, this U Magazine editorial is a haunting portrayal of lost innocence. The photo shoot features models Klaudyna, Livka, Marika, Marta P and Wiktoria as the five sisters in the film, dressed in mostly carefree white ensembles and school girl outfits. Krzysztof Wyzynski, who acts as Photographer as well as Fashion Editor of the U Magazine shoot, captures the girls as they pose in classrooms, leaning out of cars and while surrounded by nature. One especially startling image in the series is of one of the girls holding onto a rope which hangs from her neck. If you consider yourself a fan of this movie or book at all, the U Magazine photo shoot is a definite must-see. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.3/10 - Popularity: 90% | Activity: 60% | 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) > [Photography](https://www.trendhunter.com/stylephotography) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Lost Innocence:** A trend in photography and fashion that explores the theme of lost innocence, inspired by movies and literature. - **Haunting Portrayals:** A trend in photo shoots that aims to create haunting and visually striking images, drawing inspiration from various sources. - **Editorial Inspiration:** A trend of fashion editorials that take inspiration from movies, books, and other forms of media to create unique and captivating imagery. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion Photography:** The fashion photography industry can embrace the trend of creating visually striking and concept-driven images that evoke specific emotions and themes. - **Fashion Editorial:** The fashion editorial industry can explore the trend of incorporating elements of movies, books, and other artistic mediums to create compelling and thought-provoking visual narratives. - **Publishing:** The publishing industry can capitalize on the trend of creating editorial content that resonates with audiences through visual storytelling and referencing popular culture. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Girlhood-Inspired Clothing Drops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/peachy-dens-sweet-cheeks.md) - [Feminine Rebellion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/songs-of-siren.md) - [Intimate Fashion Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/velvet-heat.md) - [Mock Social Good Fashion Ads](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/not-models-own.md) - [Politically-Inspired Runway Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selkies-the-libertine-collection.md) - [Cinematic Thriller-Inspired Runways](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/jw-anderson-fw-2024.md) - [Cinematic Fashion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alessandro-micheles.md) - [Modern Minimalist Apparel Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/auteur-studios-latest-summer-edit.md) - [Whimsical Spring Apparel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/Anna-Suis-SpringSummer-2025.md)
