It's quite a challenge for fashionistas to navigate their looks in our TikTok era — new aesthetics and cores are popping up almost every week! As soon as someone remembers one of the many nostalgic films or TV shows, dreams of fantasy worlds, is inspired by the style of fashion icons of the past or even constructs trends for the future, millions of people pick it up on the popular social network and simply can't be stopped. This rapid growth of micro-trends and fast-paced aesthetics is also enriching the world of fashion. Brands are even starting to follow the desires of the fashion public and adapt their new collections. Below we have tried to gather some of the most influential fashion aesthetics of the year, some of which will stay with us into the new year. Stay tuned!
Plazacore
A trend that started last year but managed to stay in the present. The reason for its emergence is simple — tiktok nerds remembered the children's book character, Eloise, who lives at the Plaza Hotel. Bows, tweed, classic silhouettes, vintage Chanel and lots of preppy — if Blair Waldorf was an aesthetic.
Y2K
This fashion movement has already become one of the dominant ones, even other cores and aesthetics grow out of it. The focus on the 2000s is no longer just material for a Halloween costume, but the engine of fast and high fashion. Mini skirts, low jeans, cropped cardigans, accessories from the past — all of these can be safely bought even for the next year.
Mermaidcore
Mermaids today also love y2k, glitter and translucent fabrics! This is how the fashion generation 2023 interprets the style inspired by our favorite mythical creatures.
Barbiecore
Welcome to the Barbie world! We've all gotten overwhelmed with pink and Margot Robbie's chic looks this year. But somehow this aesthetic made a big impact on the fashion world, giving us a pink collection from just about every brand.
Disco Glam
Aesthetics that will come in handy for our New Year's Eve party looks very soon. Just do not forget the 70's and add lots and lots of sparkles, feathers and velvet.
Coquettecore
Someone has set femininity to the max with one and the latest tiktok aesthetics. Partly inspired by Nabokov's Lolita, this core is characterized by an abundance of ruffles, bows, delicate shades and corsets.
Rom-Com Core
Y2k in one of its most elegant and satisfying incarnations. This year and next, try to dress up as characters from the much adored 2000s romantic comedies. Time to re-watch Mean Girls, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, Miss Congeniality and the others.

Classiccore
Classic denim, stylish suits and a return to our roots. This aesthetic will work for those who have already been doing great with office looks. A peculiar mix of preppy and minimalism, which was so beloved by fashion houses in their latest collections.
Weird Girl Aesthetic
This fashion trend has taken over social media, influencers and street style this year. There are no rules — the weirder the better. You can find inspiration at garage sales, thrift shops, second hand stores and your own teenage stockpiles.
