Return of the Trends

Is it just me or have you also noticed how many fashion trends from the Y2K era has really made a major comeback? Fashion is always taking me by surprise because the more things change, it seems like it also stays the same – or should I say reinterpreted by the new generations. Here are five fashion trends that have skyrocketed in popularity.

Platforms

The chunky platforms on shoes, sneakers, sandals, boots, etc. have become very popular and have added a casual touch to many outfits. For many people, they’ve gravitated towards it because in addition to giving you that added height, now you can do so without sacrificing your comfort.

Wide Leg Pants

Wide leg pants, including trousers and jeans, are back in vogue, offering a chic and relaxed alternative to skinny styles. Choosing the right pair of wide-leg pants – whether high waisted or the right length for your height – can instantly enhance your waistline and create a flattering silhouette.

Athleisure Wear

Combining comfort and style, athleisure wear continues to be popular with activewear pieces like leggings, hoodies, and sneakers being incorporated into everyday outfits. Clothing brands are also prioritizing this more as the culture has shifted to be more mindful towards exercising and wellness.

Retro Sunglasses

Vintage-inspired sunglasses like cat-eye, round, and oversized frames are back, adding a touch of glamour and nostalgia to eyewear. These sunglasses have a way of capturing attention and making a fashion statement.

Nostalgic Prints

Prints like tie-dye, checkerboard, and retro florals are making a comeback, tapping into nostalgia for past decades. Step into the past and embrace the resurgence of timelessness as retro-inspired prints make their return.
