The trend returns with a new name.

Sustainability is the new buzzword, but didn’t we hear this before? The 90s were all about eco-friendly fashion, and now it’s back with a vengeance. Social commerce is on the rise, but isn’t that just a fancy term for influencer marketing? Gen Z is driving consumer behavior, but didn’t Millennials do the same thing just a few years ago? Experiential retail is the new thing, but doesn’t that just sound like a revamped version of the 80s mall experience? The cycle repeats itself, and the fashion industry is just along for the ride.
