In What Direction is Fashion Headed?

Hello Epiphanites, as we all know the tariffs were enforced April 9th causing a huge loss for luxury and regular fashion brands. Places such as Mexico, China and Vietnam have now had tariffs placed on their imported goods/supplies. Many major brands such as a Nike, Lululemon, etc will have to either make their consumers pay a higher price on their products or they will have to minimize the affects on customers caused by the tariffs.

What does this mean for the current and Upcoming Fashion Trends?

In the light of recent fashion trends we have seen that less is definitely becoming more. There are many aesthetics catering to this trend such as the “clean girl aesthetic” or even the “old money aesthetic”. In more recent times we have seen the explosion of users on TikTok utilizing TikTok Shop to find dupes of their favorite clothes and brands. What does this mean? It means that many people are very aware of the current state that our economy is in and are willing to go out and find “cheaper” options on trending items. We are entering an era where the “knockoff” is more socially acceptable than the “original”.
