Everyone is talking about a looming economic recession, and that vibe is seeping into the world of fashion as well.
Recession core is the new fashion trend and everyone is talking about it.
People really started talking about it after the Golden Globe Awards when many celebrities walked the red carpet without any jewelry on.
Side note: Do you really think celebrities can’t afford jewelry? No, they just don’t want to flaunt their wealth in front of their struggling fans.
That lack of brilliance is proof that the core of the recession is the problem.
What is a recession core?
That’s basically exactly what it sounds like.
Recession-Core is minimal aesthetics at its best.
Think jewelry, natural hair color, natural makeup looks, understated clothing colors, utilitarian bags, and more.
People are going back to thrift stores to shop for clothes, ditching accessories, skipping visits to hair salons, and favoring a minimal, natural look.
According to BeLatina, the mood is similar to what we saw during the 2008 recession.
Last time the economy took a turn for the worse, we saw fashion return to minimal, understated, and more natural looks.
i don’t hate it.
My bank account is comfortable enough with the recession-centric vibe, and I’m ready to back off an over-the-top fashion trend or two.
