which has smothered the design world.


Explanation:
Really stylish, the new film YYY bows to the matte trend that's smothered the design world. (which has or that has - that's ...flowing )

'investir' in this sense is more about surrounding, circumventing...i used smothered (as i've also used 'bow' , which might be a bit more spicy for marketing purposes, maybe a bit strong)
