It’s not a secret that the Y2K fashion and beauty aesthetic is back by popular demand. Thanks to celebrities such as Bella Hadid and Gen Z’s full-blown obsession with the aesthetic on Tik Tok, fashion is heading back to the early 2000s. However, with the nostalgic shift toward super low-rise jeans, butterfly clips, and thin eyebrows has come the more sinister notion that certain body types – and even specific body parts can also come in and out of style. Yes, we’re talking about the apparent rise and fall of BBL (Brazilian Butt Lift) fashion.

After the glitz and glamour of fashion week, a new colour trend is on the horizon: red. Usurping the Valentino pink that dominated the whole of 2022, red seems to be taking over the fashion streets and catwalks. At least twelve designers at New York Fashion Week (NYFW) gave red the greenlight to reign as the soon-to-be-everywhere shade of 2023. Some of the most notable looks, such as fluid trousers and sharp-shouldered blazer dresses shown at Theory, Jason Wu, Alice + Olivia, and Alejandra Alonso Rojas, took the sophisticated, structured suit sets received by street style and injected them with a fresh palette. Most of the red looks at fashion week were showcased in orange undertones, with a select few leaning towards deeper hues. Regardless of the shade, the pieces were still saturated and bright enough to stop traffic.

Thrifting has become the best way to indulge in the glitz and glam of fashion, while simultaneously protecting the planet. Moreover, it is a great option for when you’re strapped for cash and want to save money, or you just like the idea of finding unique and vintage items to add to your closet.

Denim is a fashion staple that has stood the test of time. In 2023, we’re seeing a rise in the popularity of the ankle crop and distressed treatments that range from unfinished hems to redone patchwork. Pleated trousers, dramatically pooling wide legs, and form-fitting boot-cut flares are also everywhere, with these more standout shapes hailing from the ’70s, ’80s, and ’90s. The versatile ensemble is a perfect blank canvas, and no one understands this better than singing sensation and fashionista, Elaine.

As we have established from fashion houses across the globe, red is the colour of choice for 2023. However, the hue’s newfound popularity has not replaced its dopamine-inspired predecessor – pink. Dazzling, electrifying pink looks have been just about everywhere since last year, from the runway to the red carpet. It is impossible to scroll through social media without coming across the hot pink aesthetic that social media users have aptly dubbed Barbiecore. Moreover, celebrities such as the Queen of Rap, Nicki Minaj have been embracing the bold hue for over a decade now.

Remember the era when sweatpants were considered a major faux pas? Thank goodness we made it past that very dark age of monotonous fashion! While we love a body-hugging pair of jeans and tiny, pleated mini skirts, roomy, comfy, soft pants have become our go-to over the past few years. We now know that loungewear can be versatile, and when it comes to what to wear with sweatpants, we’re no longer limited to coordinating sweatshirts or solid-coloured tees. Not only are there form-fitting options that make them look stylish, but there are numerous ways to style your joggers, even your slouchiest pair, that will make you look and feel like a fashion icon.
