One of the main style shifts since 4th quarter 2004: online fashion addicts now prefer the Hippie style with revolutionary accents. The Romantic look has fallen back in the ranking during the last 2 quarters. This new style is mainly encouraged by a certain type of role model: Gwen Stefani is the favoured musician/actress. The punky, revolutionary woman is represented by Stefani, who displaces Beyonce and Jennifer Lopez.

The online survey during 4th quarter 2004 and 1st quarter 2005 shows a consistent picture of desires and expectations which are in very strong correlation with the media agenda: The youth is well socialized by the main style topics of the media and in strong emotional connection with the top premium brands in fashion and cosmetics.
