“Ugly” millennial trend causes a stir in fashion world!
Fashion is all about recycling trends, but this one is causing a stir.
Fashion trends recycled.
This isn’t the first time a fashion trend has been revived.
U.K. designer resale expert Giorgio Ammirabile explained to Newsweek why fashion is cyclical.
“Fashion is cyclical due to several factors,” Ammirabile said.
Six factors that make fashion cyclical, according to Ammirabile!
He listed six factors: design, viral trends, inspiration and theme, brand popularity, celebrity influence, and cultural values.
He emphasized that these cycles keep the industry dynamic and innovative.
“The cyclic nature of fashion means trends are constantly evolving,” Ammirabile noted.
He added that this evolution keeps designers on their toes.
The rise of the Gucci belt.
The Gucci belt’s rise to fame began in the mid-2010s.
Millennials adored it as a statement piece, a symbol of luxury and style.
Celebrities and influencers flaunted it, cementing its status.
The fall of the Gucci belt!
But as with all trends, its popularity waned.
It soon became synonymous with being ‘basic’ and fell out of favor.
Yet, as fashion goes, what’s old is new again.
Gucci belt makes a comeback!
The once-despised Gucci double-G belt is back, and millennials are digging through their closets.
Alessandro Michele’s debut collection for Gucci brought this belt back into the limelight.
Nearly a decade later, the classic accessory is reclaiming its status in fashion.
What was once a status symbol is now a must-have again.
The double-G logo belt was a hit until it became ‘basic’ and ‘tacky.’
But a true classic never stays out of style for long.
Celebs and influencers cemented the Gucci belt’s status!
Recently, the belt has been spotted on several A-listers, signaling its comeback.
Bella Hadid rocked the logo belt in New York City last May.
Miley Cyrus is seen with the skinny version in her upcoming interview with David Letterman.
Idris Elba sported the classic belt at Gucci’s Milan Menswear Fall/Winter 2024-2025 show.
Social media is buzzing with the return of the Gucci belt.
The account @databutmakeitfashion noted an 18% increase in posts about the belt on X.
“Don’t bring it back, please I beg you,” pleaded one commenter.
Another scoffed, “Not the ugly Gucci belt comeback pls.”
However, some are thrilled, with one user boasting, “So happy I didn’t get rid of mine.”
In recent months, sightings of the belt on trendsetters have surged.
From the streets of New York to the runways of Milan, it’s making waves.
As trends recycle, one thing is clear: nothing ever truly goes out of style.
