    I feel like another big reason why 2014 and the early 2010's are coming back to style is because many people of my age (People born 200-2004) are a huge influence and due to today's stage of the world, become nostalgic and wish to go back to the early 2010's where we were young teenagers and the world just seemed to be a much better place. A perfect example being Bethany mota's old videos, the world was much more colorful, almost everyone liked the same stuff and followed the same trend, while nowadays everyone due to globalisation, likes something completly different which makes it harder to bond with people. I've been longing for the 2010 era since 2020 and it's not surprising that everyojne else is doing it now too.

      same lmao but to answer your comment it’s because of TikTok fashion influencers tbh! they just don’t know how to wear stuff.... they just add “-core” to every little thing imaginable saturate it and then they jump to the next thing. All this in a few weeks mind u... even when they try “old” trends it’s a disaster like y2k that people somehow mixed up with the mcbling style when they are quite literally opposites💀 few people know about real personal style anymore I wish they encouraged to build your own style like a patchwork from trends elements that you like or things you invented yk !originality.. without having to put labels on it.

    This was honestly the best time to be in middle school such simple fun times….. I also think now that people are allowed to wear whatever they want and mix styles, which creates so many different trends that it makes it difficult for people to pick one thing to focus on.. also a saturated market of things available makes trends change.

    Eventually we'll all be fashionable as the fashion "swing" will just be so back and forth... So we can just wear everything again. I've never followed trends I'm 31, nothing appeals to me anymore I still rock vans, skinny jeans, a t-shirt and a smart blazer.

    I am still sadly too traumatised from the 2010s time, maybe because I was a child and early teenager and my style was basically the worst/most basic stuff out of all of the trends at that time. (Can’t believe my friends called me fashionable when I wore skinny jeans with high knee boots and an oversized T-shirt at the age of 14💀)
    However, I do like it when people take the best things from each decade and make it trendy again!

    As much as I'd love that because my tumblr soft grunge inner-self would be ecstatic, don't you feel that we will be going through a more specifically late 2000s revival in the mainstream first? Like I see so many people bringing back very classic mid/late 2000s mall emo on TikTok for example, or hints of what the internet has called twee. I know it has a lot of ties to the early 2010s but there's still a difference between the two.

    In 2012 I had a teacher who hated the mustache trend of the time with a passion. She always talked about how stupid she thought it was. So one time when we had a no uniform day at school my best friend at the time and I came to class decked out in head to toe mustache apparel. We both had mustache tees and leggings and my friend drew mustaches on her knock-off converses with vivid. Someone's mum probably has a picture of it on a digital camera somewhere. Those were the days.

    So true what you’re saying about the trend cycle. I feel like celebrities want to be the initiators of trends even more than influencers to stay relevant so that people credit them for wearing it "first". There were just so many things influencers and the online fashion community started wearing after they saw someone like Bella Hadid wearing them.

    2014 was such a good year. I understand why modern teens are jealous. I was in the j-fashion subculture starting around 2010, and mixed those influences with the “twee” hipster style of the time, as those clothes were more accessible to my teenage self. The subculture trends were elite: mori girl, cult party kei, dolly kei… all those styles felt easier to emulate without the budget to build my lolita wardrobe. ❤

    I don't think fashion will ever be mono-culture-centric again and that a good thing. Unlike other era, the 10s are super well documented and it is super easy to have an overview of the trends. It indeed reveals a consumer society centered around flagship everyone wanted, paradoxically wanting to be unique at once. The so called gen-Z culture is just the general zeitgeist, and a continuation of that but with more diversity. There's no longer a generational thing (series, trend, etc.) but a multitude of things to pick from.
    My point is, if the 10s were to make a comeback, I don't think it would be about specific pieces like yoga pants, moustache, beanie etc. (maybe at the beginning as an obvious direct reference).
    Back in the 10s I hardly imagined how would the 2000s would come back because it sounded like what everyone hated. The mcbling thing might have been directly referenced by influencers. But what the revival really brought is an overall, broad aesthetic and silhouette (baggy, puffy everything, laces, and a street vibe). This translated into brand new ´trends' (Gorpcore, Cyber-grunge, Neo-Y2K, Acubi...)
    Thus, if the 10s were to return, an actual revival would be more global, people will try to emulate an idea of the 10s rather than copying the style. As you mentioned, the clean girl thing is a modernization of the corpo-cool style from the 10s. You made me realize that this is exactly how I felt the 10s, the mix of anything (grunge, vintage, goth, arty...) with a slick, business-friendly silhouette
    I imagine the current early 2000s revival ending with an 'anti-core' movement drawing inspiration from indie-sleaze and 'tongue-in-cheek', non curated aesthetic. Based on runways, I think it will take a more dystopian tone though (more about the grungy, moody part, less about partying)

    I was 25 in 2014, flat broke and living in Paris. I can confirm that, when you can only afford one shirt, it’s gonna be a shirt you can wear to work. I preferred a collared shirt because I could wear it buttoned up with a statement necklace at work, then undo the buttons and have a lower cut in the club/bar. I wasn’t dressing that way because I loved it, but because I had to.
