# Bizarre Boat Photo Props The Vice 'Wet N' Wild' Photoshoot is Nowhere Near Water By Tiana Reid | Published 2010-06-02 | Fashion Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vice-wet-n-wild References: [viceland](http://www.viceland.com/int/v17n5/htdocs/fashion-wet-n-wild-436.php) & [davidtitlow](http://www.davidtitlow.com/) The setting of the Vice 'Wet N' Wild' spread, which was shot by David Titlow and styled by Teddy George-Poku, is nowhere near a boat or a large body of water. Typically, boat-inspired clothing is usually accompanied by some water, a boat or even a pool. But this photoshoot takes the whole nautical idea and incorporates it mostly into its bizarre props, like a boat in a bottle, a city fountain, a bathtub and a rubber jellyfish toy. This is Vice we're talking about, after all. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.2/10 - Popularity: 47% | Activity: 42% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hip Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/hipfashion) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Boat-inspired Clothing Without Water:** Opportunity to disrupt the fashion industry by creating boat-inspired clothing that can be worn outside of traditional water settings. - **Nautical Theme Without Traditional Props:** Opportunity to disrupt the event planning industry by offering unique nautical-themed props that do not involve boats or pools. - **Absurd Prop Photography:** Opportunity to disrupt the photography industry by offering absurd prop photography as a way to stand out in the market. ### Who This Affects Most - **Fashion:** The fashion industry can embrace boat-inspired clothing without the need for a water display. - **Event Planning:** The event planning industry can offer clients nautical-themed props that are unique and do not require traditional water settings. - **Photography:** The photography industry can create a niche in absurd prop photography as a way to differentiate from competitors. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Nautical Themed Hotel Suites](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sea-containers.md) - [Physically Looped Canal Boats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/looptheloop-boat.md) - [Hot Tub Boats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spacruzzi.md) - [Riverside Scenic Calming Hotels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/boatyard-hotel.md) - [Comedic Cruise Spots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/its-different-out-here.md) - [Versatile Office-Ready Canoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/canoebicle.md) - [Docked Ship-Inspired Tea Houses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/billy-otea.md) - [Surrealist Beauty Lines](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/toiletpaper-magazine.md) - [Sight-Seeing Hot Tubs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chicago-electric-boat-company.md)
