Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Yelena Yemchuk Captures Hilary Rhoda for Vogue Italia February 2014

— February 20, 2014 — Pop Culture
This Vogue Italia February 2014 style story shows us you don't need a little black dress when you can have a little black suit.

Fashion photographer Yelena Yemchuk captures this sleek and stylish shoot. Model Hilary Rhoda rocks different looks in each image. She wears a different quirky wig for each look. Most of the wigs are short and sassy in different colors.

The overarching fashion theme in this chic Vogue Italia February 2014 pictorial is outfits that look like a men's suit. Every garment of clothing is in all black. While some of the items are literal suit jackets, others are dresses that are inspired by suit jackets. For instance, in one shot, Rhoda wears a long-sleeved black dress that has a collar which looks like a suit lapel.
Trend Themes
1. Black Suit Fashion - Disruption opportunity: Introduce sustainable and affordable fabrics for black suit-inspired clothing lines to appeal to eco-conscious consumers.
2. Wig Fashion - Disruption opportunity: Create a line of high-quality, affordable wigs for fashion enthusiasts to easily switch up their looks without breaking the bank.
3. Androgynous Fashion - Disruption opportunity: Develop a genderless clothing line inspired by the sleek and stylish looks featuring in Vogue Italia's February 2014 Little Black Suit Editorials.
Industry Implications
1. Fashion - Disruption opportunity: Incorporate sustainable materials and practices in clothing manufacturing to appeal to eco-conscious consumers currently avoiding fast fashion.
2. Beauty - Disruption opportunity: Offer a high-quality, affordable wig line to fashion enthusiasts looking to change up their hairstyles often and experiment with trends without committing to a permanent look.
3. Retail - Disruption opportunity: Create a genderless clothing line to appeal to consumers who dress to express themselves and their individuality rather than adhering to traditional gender norms and roles.
