Gen Z is the generation leading the latest trends in most fields, especially fashion. However, this generation also frequently faces challenges and debates related to their choices.

Let's come to the world of young people with Pierre Cardin Paris Vietnam and explore some interesting facts!

1 - Gen Z - The “redefining” generation Tof fashion

When we think of Gen Z, we might imagine high school or college students confidently walking the streets in casual streetwear, oversized sneakers, and colorful hair. In reality, the first generation of Gen Z, now 25 - 26 years old, is actively participating in the workforce.

Gen Z is a common term for those born from the late 1990s to 2012 (usually considered from 1997 to 2012). They were born and grown in the era of the 4th, making them highly adaptable, confident, innovative, and adventurous. Notably, Gen Z is strongly aware of building their images and expressing their individual identities.

With this age range, Gen Z represents 1/3 of the global population and 25% of the workforce in Vietnam (General Statistics Office). It can be said that Gen Z is currently leading and shaping the future in various industries, including fashion.

In the Gen Z era, fashion is an “open” stage. The explosion of social media platforms has greatly spread the trends. Because of their innate adaptability, Gen Z swiftly approaches and renews trends in their own style. Some prominent trends endorsed by Gen Z include Athleisure (athletic-inspired fashion), colorful tie-dye styles, and more.

Besides following trends, Gen Z also considers fashion as a method of self-expression. They confidently break the traditional rules and norms about gender and ethnicity. It is easy to see young men wearing dresses on the streets or high-fashion runways. Snake prints, fur, natural makeup looks, etc,. are easily spotted.

"Gen Z does not follow fashion; they redefine it based on their styles!"

2 - Does Gen Z Truly Inherit European Aristocratic Fashion?

However, the excessive prominence of "rebellious" styles has led Gen Z to face issues about being "indifferent to traditional values."

In contrast, Gen Z has played a significant role in reviving vintage fashion trends. An example is the Vintage fashion trend (originating from the 1930s - 1940s) with nearly 167 million posts on Instagram, remaining timeless for young people.

Recently, the Dark Academia trend, inspired by European scholars' styles. Button-up shirts, trousers, stripes, and Dress Shoes have captivated Gen Z, who appreciates the aristocracy, intellectualism, mystery, and charm. Classic fashion is still leading the 2023 trends on fashion runways from Milan to Paris.
