Every once in a while a fashion trend emerges that takes over the social media and how! But this time around fashionistas are absolutely loving it
Fashion trends are a dynamic phenomenon. Some have vanished into the pages of history, but others have managed to reclaim their place as if creating a time loop. While observing the ever-evolving fashion trends, there are a few things to keep an eye out for, ranging from the colours that will take over fashion stores to accessories that will outshine clothing. Also, there is quite a bridge between Gen Z and the millennial sartorial choices. While the debate about changing fashion quotients continues, one particular trend that has appeared in the vogue industry is the “Grandpacore” style. From popular celebrities to the general masses, everyone is obsessed with this trend. So, it’s high time we delve deeper into it.
Currently trending on social media is the “Grandpacore” or “eclectic grandpa” aesthetic. This trend is all about dressing in ways that are heavily inspired by your grandfather’s sense of style. In other words, straight out of your grandpa’s closet. Minus the funky and colourful fusion, this type of attire weaves minimalism with sophistication, exuding a classic fashion taste. With a more easygoing design, the chicness factor is a major highlight of this retro streetwear collection. This category includes preppy knits, tweed blazers, stylish cardigans, sweater vests, vintage loafers, and loose-fitting pants.
This type of clothing comes in mellow pastel shades primarily brown, beige, off-white, and khaki tones. They can be in yellow, pink, or blue hues too provided that they are not too vivid. Basically, any outfit that your grandpa would have worn during his younger days is the latest Grandpacore style. Celebrities who have been spotted adopting this Grandpacore look include Gigi Hadid, Harry Styles, Hailey Bieber, and Zoe Kravitz. More recently, Bollywood actress Deepika Padukone was seen in a similar dress code while promoting her film Fighter. She put on a white shirt and layered it with a beige sweater vest and matching pants.
Additionally, Pinterest’s list of the top 10 beauty and fashion trends for 2024 includes this comfort-inclined style. “They will embrace Grandpacore and bring eccentric and expressive elements for the ages to their wardrobes,” claims Pinterest while describing the fashion tastes of Gen Z.
