FASHION FOR RECESSION

video: tiktok TikTok has another fashion trend - 'Recession core', named after trends such as 'Barbie core'. Like the term suggests, it means dressing up for an economic downturn.

why recession core?

TikTok says recession core is in vogue as celebrities & brands have reduced the bling, embraced neutral colours & pared back on logomania.

no necklace look

no logomania

Balenciaga's latest collection lacked the usual logomania, which fashion commentators on TikTok said is another sign of recession core. photo: getty images [{ "selector": ".ojclo-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": "1"} ] }, { "selector": ".uoszq-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": "1"} ] }, { "selector": ".lgdxz-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": "1"} ] }, { "selector": ".zdwrp-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "1000ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 439px))", "opacity": "60%"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "60%"} ] }, { "selector": ".gujos-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "1500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 461px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }, { "selector": ".rwdaw-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "2000ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 496px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }, { "selector": ".rwlue-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "opacity": 0}, {"offset": 1, "opacity": "1"} ] }]

irony

Does it smell like irony that millionaire celebrities & luxury fashion houses would be dressing up for an economic downturn?

UNDERSTANDING RECESSION CORE

PHOTO: instagram The defence is that fashion doesn't exist in a vacuum and reflects the society. Celebs choosing to dress down is seen mostly to avoid backlash. [{ "selector": ".zuifq-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "1000ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 443px))", "opacity": "60%"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "60%"} ] }, { "selector": ".eifds-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 458px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }, { "selector": ".kmslj-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 483px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }]

great depression fashion

The Great Depression of 30s influenced similar trend with neutral colours, lack of logos, etc. [{ "selector": ".mfzoo-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "1000ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 443px))", "opacity": "60%"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "60%"} ] }, { "selector": ".nawxf-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "0ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 458px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }, { "selector": ".rxpcq-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 482px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }]

critique

However, not everyone is convinced that the latest minimalism trend is related to recession. Some just think of it as a fashion experiment. video: tiktok [{ "selector": ".ansri-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "1000ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 434px))", "opacity": "60%"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "60%"} ] }, { "selector": ".efnti-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "1500ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 459px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }, { "selector": ".zewso-a", "duration": "500ms", "fill": "forwards", "delay": "2000ms", "keyframes": [ {"offset": 0, "transform": "translateY(calc(600px - 485px))", "opacity": "1"}, {"offset": 1, "transform": "translateY(0)", "opacity": "1"} ] }]

minimalism in
