# Suited-Up Seductresses Vince Riley Illustrates Women Changing Into Action-Ready Attire By Jason Soy | Published 2011-12-23 | Naughty Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vince-riley References: [artforadults.tumblr](http://artforadults.tumblr.com/post/14554557805/her-favorite-long-johns-by-punchyninja) & [punchyninja.deviantart](http://punchyninja.deviantart.com/) Vince Riley understands that women can be just as badass as men when it comes to brandishing a gun and kicking butt, as made evident by these [stylish depictions of females](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/contemporary-femininity) suiting up in action garbs. More importantly, however, is that Riley recognizes that ladies have the added advantage of using their [sexuality to lull men](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/toy-stories) to their doom. Simply have a man look through this image gallery and watch their ability to pay attention fade away. Riley’s conveyance of women as both strong and seductive negates criticisms of objectification as his subjects’ ability to be both is an empowering attribute. Vince Riley, who also illustrates under the pseudonym 'punchyninja,' is a [comic book artist](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alterego-the-official-comic) and head of 17 Machine Studios. He’s collaborated with writer Chuck Paschall and self-published the series Native Drums through his company. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.5/10 - Popularity: 93% | Activity: 95% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Naughty](https://www.trendhunter.com/naughty) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Female Empowerment in Action Garbs:** The trend of depicting women as strong and seductive in action attire presents disruptive innovation opportunities in the fashion and entertainment industries. - **Utilizing Sexuality as a Weapon:** The trend of showcasing women using their sexuality to their advantage creates disruptive innovation opportunities in marketing and persuasion strategies. - **Breaking Stereotypes Through Art:** The trend of illustrating women as both strong and seductive challenges traditional gender roles and offers disruptive innovation opportunities in the art and media industries. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion Industry:** The fashion industry can capitalize on the trend of female empowerment in action garbs by designing and promoting stylish yet functional attire for women. - **Entertainment Industry:** The entertainment industry can explore disruptive innovation opportunities by creating movies, TV shows, and comics that feature strong and seductive female characters in action-packed roles. - **Marketing Industry:** The marketing industry can leverage the trend of utilizing sexuality as a weapon to develop new advertising campaigns and strategies that appeal to both male and female audiences. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Raunchy Anime-Inspired Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/manuela-soto-sosa.md) - [Empowering Superhero-Inspired Shapewear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/inner-armour.md) - [Feminine Rebellion Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/songs-of-siren.md) - [Sexuality-Exploring Artful Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rude-arts-club.md) - [Office-Themed Lingerie Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hot-desking.md) - [Unapologetic Lingerie Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mariemurs-judge-me-guilty.md) - [Empowering AI Image Generators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/missjourney.md) - [Artistic Sneaker Collaborations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/skechers-x-vexx.md) - [Redefined Masculinity Branding](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tough-guys-soft-sweaters.md)
