In the last post, we discussed the trends of '70s '80s, and '90s. This post will actually be more relatable as most of my audience belong to the following generation. This is a continuation of my last post 5 decades of international fashion. If you haven't checked that out, go down to find the post.
4. The Modish millennium: The new millennium brought 'Y2K FASHION' with it. It meant that fashion was influenced by technology and had a futuristic approach to it. Metallics, monochrome, lustrous black and Grey dominated the scene. Leather skirts, mesh tops, sparkling shoes and sequined pants were seen often. Oversized sunglasses and hoop earrings along with denim jackets, wedge flip flops made the casual look. Mid-aughts commonly had yoga pants, cowl neck tops, tube tops, cargo pants, capri pants and puffy jackets trendy. In 2005 skinny jeans originated and in 2006 it evolved to be an international staple. In early 2009, many trends from the late 1980s and early '90s revived. The animal prints, polka dots and neon colours were some of them.

5. The Trendy 2010s :
The early 2010s replicated vintage clothing. The trends of the 2000s didn't fade that easily. Skinny jeans especially acid-washed, metallic dresses, capris etc were still common. Finally, in the mid-2010s, the neon colour was out of fashion. Monochrome was now a dominating trend internationally. Crop top, oversized jackets, romper suits etc were in vogue. Loose Capri pants and Palazzo pants were introduced in the mid-2010s. Use of denim became very minimal during the mid-2010s internationally and yoga pants, slim fit pants took over. Smaller backpacks became trendy among college students. The popular trends around 2018 and 2019 were sneakers, fringe bags, biker jackets and scrunchies worn on the head or as a wrist band. Skinny jeans are now being slowly replaced with straight-legged jeans. This decade is now going to end soon and hence new trends will pop up soon. But the fashion industry along with the entire world is now facing an abrupt halt thanks to the pandemic. Let's hope with the year ending soon we will have some cool new trends and some old trends will again breathe.

Hope this post was more relatable than the previous one. The trends repeat and hence knowing them may help you to become extra fashionable and so that you carefully choose what to reject and what to adore in the wardrobe. A new decade of fashion will take birth soon and bring trends that are more sustainable and much appreciable. Hit the love to encourage people around you.
