# Fashionable Reflective Outfits We Flashy Makes Wearing Safety Clothing Socially Acceptable By Michael Hines | Published 2011-05-15 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/we-flashy References: [laughingsquid](http://laughingsquid.com/we-flashy-reflective-clothing-for-modern-times/) & [kickstarter](http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/alexvessels/we-flashy-reflective-clothing-for-modern-times) If you are a cyclist who wants to stay seen at night without having to dress like a construction worker, you are going to want to check out We Flashy. We Flashy is a new project from Alex Vessels and Mindy Tchieu that aims to release reflective, yet fashionable clothing. All of We Flashy's clothes have a modern look and feel and are easily able to be seen by car headlights thanks to their reflective patterns. I am not a cyclist or a night runner, but I can see the wisdom in creating reflective fashion that is actually fashionable. More people wearing reflective clothing means less accidents, which is always a good thing. Check out We Flashy here and be sure to support the brand's Kickstarter project if you like what you see. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.5/10 - Popularity: 40% | Activity: 28% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Fashionable Reflective Clothing:** The trend towards fashionable and stylish reflective clothing is disrupting the traditional market of safety clothing. - **Night-time Visibility:** With more people opting for night-time activities, the trend towards night-time visibility clothing presents opportunities for disruption in the fashion industry. - **Socially Acceptable Safety Clothing:** As safe clothing becomes more stylish, industries such as cycling and running may see disruptive changes in social acceptance of safety clothing. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Fashion Industry:** The fashion industry is being disrupted by the trend towards safety clothing that is both fashionable and has night-time visibility. - **Sports Industry:** With growing interest in night-time activities, the sports industry may see opportunities to disrupt the market by offering night-time visibility clothing that is both safe and stylish. - **Safety Clothing Industry:** The trend towards fashionable reflective clothing may disrupt the safety clothing industry by forcing traditional safety clothing manufacturers to adjust their products to meet changing demand. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Gesture-Controlled Turn Signal Armbands](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/flasher-armbands.md) - [Stylish Safety Stickers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bike-helmet-reflective-star-decals.md) - [High Visibility Activewear Ranges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ciele-nite-rite.md) - [Tech-Visible Bike Reflectors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/radian-wingman.md) - [Reflective Kinesiology Tapes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rockflash.md) - [LED-Infused Festival Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tinsel-arcade.md) - [Illuminated Cycling Helmets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/illuminated-cycling-helmet.md) - [Commuter-Focused Reflected Bag Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reflected-bag.md) - [360° Reflective Pedelec Helmet](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reflective-helmet-pedelec.md)
