Styled by Marzia Fossati, this collection is a [beautiful concept](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contemporary-femininity) that was executed admirably. So admirably in fact, that I would have believed that these images were unearthed from a [century-old chest](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unseenbeauty-initiative). ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.7/10 - Popularity: 70% | Activity: 62% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## 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 - **Vintage Photography:** Disruptive innovation opportunities in reviving the aesthetic and techniques of vintage photography in a modern context. - **Conceptual Styling:** Opportunities for disruptive innovation in creating unique and thought-provoking concepts through styling in fashion photography. - **Ethereal Aesthetics:** Opportunities for disruptive innovation in exploring and redefining ethereal and otherworldly aesthetics in photography. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion:** Disruptive innovation opportunities in creating avant-garde and boundary-pushing fashion photography. - **Art:** Opportunities for disruptive innovation in showcasing vintage-inspired photography as art. - **Publishing:** Disruptive innovation opportunities in incorporating vintage-inspired photography into magazine editorials and books. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Unretouched Photography Books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dove-reimagine-beauty.md) - [Unique Artistic Books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/amusebouche.md) - [Whimsical Feminine Runway Shows](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wild-rose-sparrow.md) - [Ballet-Inspired Altheticwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/en-pointe-collection.md) - [Intricate Bridal Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/heli-kalkstein.md) - [Russian Art Deco-Inspired Decor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/racines-collection.md) - [Randomness-Inspired Designer Footwear Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beauty-in-chaos.md) - [Nostalgic Beauty Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unseenbeauty-initiative.md) - [AI-Generated Poetic Photo Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/emilio-alarcn.md)
