How TikTok and Instagram trends have affected high fashion houses
Everyone has noticed that TikTok and Instagram stars have recently appeared in heavily frayed denim shorts with a belt with a huge buckle, a cap, and shoes with small heels, in various lace bodysuits with cargo pants and stylish Fendi baguette, and sunglasses are combined with slogan velor sweatpants with glittering rhinestones. And, thanks to TikTok and Instagram, fashion houses have breathed new life into their 2000s collections this season, and with greater vigour than before. The reign of kitsch and glamor has returned in the latest Miu Miu collections, with knee-length fur boots, tops and trousers with crystals, such as Blumarine, and Lanvin with eclecticism in everything.
