why these trends keep coming back (2025 predictions) ft

[@brendaokuda2158]

As a senior citizen this is why you stick with the classics & things you really love. Like the way Becky really loves her classic 70's. If it's well made & you love it who cares if "they" think it's over?

[@TheSorryGirls]

you are absolutely right!😁

[@lauraplenzik9393]

Tomato girl aesthetic is definitely tied back to that tuscan kitchen vibe. I think the point of those food jars was to look like a rustic italian kitchen where they would actually eventually eat those ingredients.

[@AnnekeOosterink]

Yeah, I have a bottle of herbal vinegar, bunch of herbs and spices in a vinegar for salad dressings etc, but the bottle is definitely pretty and meant to also be displayed as you use it. Same with the glass jars of things like pasta and rice etc. Like, I use them as actual storage and empty and refill them, but there are also used a lot for decoration only. I've seen many displays of jars of dried goods (or as in the video, preserved food) that are way too high up to be practical for an everyday item, so not meant as actual storage.

[@selenamcgonnell9618]

Historian and museum professional here! Rachel is onto something when she brought up the idea of displaying status through food. This has been done for forever, but the most prevalent example is the pineapple! Owning a pineapple and displaying it when it was first introduced was to show off wealth since they had to import it from thousands of miles away and they were expensive enough to make it hard for anyone who wasn’t crazy rich to get their hands on it. They even showed it off by having statues and carving of pineapples on buildings to show off their wealth 😊

[@chels574]

Very cool, thanks for sharing your insight into this!

[@dreamelatte]

Didn't they also used to rent pineapples for parties? haha

[@staciroberts5779]

They used to have pineapple cutting parties and, unfortunately, the pineapple was no longer ripe…

[@socalmotionYT]

Yea my family is from the Philippines and we used to display fruits imported like apples and grapes. It’s known that only the rich can afford these fruits. Now I’m sick of apples and grapes. I miss the exotic fruits from the islands

[@helenecorbett7487]

1982 - I was 14/15 & I desperatly wanted a red & white bedroom with black furniture. Mum was against it, but I did odd jobs (cleaning houses etc) to gather the funds to buy wallpaper & paint myself. My parents saw how determined I was, so they sai if I did the decorating myself, they would buy my furniture. I settled on white paper with red hearts, red gloss paint for the skirting boards & windowsill. Red curtains & a grey carpet. It took me 4 weeks to complete & I loved it.... For about 6 months & then hated it with a passion. I left home at 18 & left Mum with the red & white bedroom! 😂

[@erin.carol333]

I wonder how much of the trend cycle is tied to nostalgia and feeding inner your inner child for the trends. As someone in their 20s seeing this happen to me for the first time with all the y2k items coming back into style I'm loving it because I'm getting to enjoy these things fully for the first time. It almost feels like we're being primed to like these things when we're younger so that way 20 or 30 years down the line, when we're making our own money we can indulge in them again!

[@TheSorryGirls]

Oh never thought of it like this! There could definitely be a connection there🤔😊

[@marieelyse2924]

Oooh girl I agree!! I had a 1990s themed 30th birthday sleepover, gave out loot bags, had a Spice Girls ice cream cake, and did "pass-the-parcel" where the prize was a Tamagotchi!

I love that you guys have Melissa from AIP for an episode that deep dives into something! Such a great crossover 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@TheSorryGirls]

yessss loved having her on😊

[@TheYGElitist]

Trends can be categorized by maxi and micro, sure technology made the cycle faster, but micro trends were always “wishy washy” in a way. Now, maxi trends linger longer, but they are more broad and often came from a shift in society, such as a new technology, sustainability, and other movements seen globally. Some micro trends can be foreseen based on maxi, as well as come from nowhere because something went viral! Honestly it’s a really fun subject, and it’s so much deeper than it seems 😊

[@TheSorryGirls]

you’re right it is SUCH an interesting topic! Loved talking about it😊

[@Baiser-Milou]

[@DigsRetro]

I hope Melissa is sure her flowerpot mug is food safe. I don't know if flowerpots have to have food safe glaze.

[@amyluisa]

I was worrying about this too!

[@Rocannee]

the artist sold it to her so I hope they wouldve said something if it wasnt

[@PotterytothePeople]

potter here :) should be fine as long as the clay is stoneware or porcelain (which it looks to be). Most vases are made with those materials because non-food-safe typically means porous and porous vases would leak.

[@Gelime_]

Fellow potter here. Even with that, not all glazes are food safe.

[@justinesieber6233]

My mom had a collection of the decorative persevered vegetables in different shaped jars. I distinctly remember her buying them from Bed Bath and Beyond

[@TheSorryGirls]

whaaaatttt? They sold those?? hahaha

[@mommashawna707]

1986 we used a projector to put an abstract women’s face on my entire wall painted it and the colors of my room were black white and red and I don’t mean just a little pop of color red like literally my bedspread was red. Something you guys are missing when trying to predict trends is the economy & the way people are feeling, when people are needing to be comforted as a whole they will tend to go to the warmer colors. So the state of our countries really do add to the trends and can change them somewhat. You guys are thinking way too much about the inedible food in the jars. Kitchens we’re going through a Tuscany feel that’s what we were trying to re-create and yes you would buy the bottles with peppers in oil but they were sealed with wax, our cabinets at that time did not go to the ceiling and you would put those bottles up there and yes you would buy them at a home decorating store.

[@TheSorryGirls]

Omygoosshhh…honestly sounds like a vibe😁

[@oliveinthetree]

Completely agree with your second paragraph!

[@Jzybrrd]

I definitely think the food jar will be brought back but with an actual use - more prepping, preserving, gardening, getting back to the simple ways of our ancestors. Especially if the food supply is ever limited! Always a good idea to have extra food or learn to can food for emergencies too. That’s my 2025 prediction 😬

[@katw6757]

I think part of the drive for trend repeating is yard sales, thrifting, and the passing down of things as older people downsize and as they reminisce. It brings the trends back into our conscience and then into the public eye. The Tuscan kitchen trend they mentioned, I have seen so many of those themed items at estate sales and yard sales this summer. I even got myself a kitchen chicken after seeing so many chicken decor pieces that my mind eventually went "you know what I DO need one of those!"

[@celiaclarke7103]

Girls! Sorry to tell you but “Puffer jackets” were the style when I was in middle/high school - late 70s, into 80s. Mine was lime green 😮💚 proof trends come around 20-30 years.

[@Yeesa3755]

The cottage core of the Midwest in the 90s was totally geese, cornflower blue, and throw in some twine or gingham. The goose décoré was everywhere, especially on the wallpaper border at the top of walls.

[@charlotteblanchard]

If her coffee mug was meant to be a flower pot, then it’s probably not food grade and may contain heavy metals and other components that can harm you if ingested. I’d use that mug with caution. 😕

[@FleaÉire]

I think it’s quite obviously a flower pot. If it narrowed towards the top I might get it, but it straight up, clearly not a mug 😂

[@AnnekeOosterink]

@@FleaÉire I have seen many mugs intended as mugs only that have this exact shape too.

[@FleaÉire]

@@AnnekeOosterink I dunno. The bottom of it is too big. Mugs don't usually have it like that. Plates and bowls yes, not seen it on a mug

[@AnnekeOosterink]

@@FleaÉire That's purely a matter of taste though. Mugs have no required shape, aside from being able to function as a mug.

[@kathleenmcadams7392]

did you miss the part where she said she bought it from the artist? I'm petty sure they would have mentioned if it wasn't food safe

[@jademorgan999]

If Rachel makes a video on filing and reglasing broken mugs,I would looove to see it.

I watched a BBC production about historical fashion produced in the 1950s and they too pointed out general trends in architecture, and home decor in conjunction with fashion. They had the models wear original antique dresses to make sure they didn't have a bad reproduction or copy. They showed a lady in an 1810s gown, so regency, slim dress, drapey flimsy fabric, long lines, very much harking back to ancient Rome and Greece. So the homes also had a lot of tall windows, tall and slim columns, both architecturally as well as display tables shaped like tall columns etc. The 1850s gown with a very wide hoop skirt was made at the same time that many buildings had domes for example. Very interesting to see the things connected like that.

[@TheSorryGirls]

Isn’t so interesting!? Sounds like a very cool production too😊

[@lanak99]

I looooved this episode! I have so many feelings about trends and you touched on every single one in this episode. Such a cool conversation!

[@MlleFunambuline]

Those pickled item are edible. If you travel to the Mediterranea you will see plenty of them, they are food staples in many diets in North Africa, Turkey, Greece, Italy, Spain, etc. Look for exemple for giardiniera, it an italian mixed pickle that need big bottles and is beautiful... and totally edible and delicious.

[@YaaLFH]

Not necessarily - depends where they were bought, they might be edible in a decorative reusable container, or inedible and sealed.

[@marieelyse2924]

18:05 omg Becky the powder blue puffer jackets!!! EVERY girl in my grade 6 class had powder blue puffer jackets in 2002-2003. The grade 7 "popular girls" had DARK blue puffer jackets. We literally colour-coded ourselves based on our grade and social status 😵. In my mind (based on my child self's understanding of the world), puffer jackets were such a huge thing in the late 90s/early 2000s because Scary Spice (Mel B) said "I like a puffer jacket. They make you look smart." I always think of that quote when I wear a puffer jacket!

[@reggies2893]

my bestie (25f) is OBSESSED with chicken/rooster motifs rn i could totally see that coming back in with the kitchen aesthetics

[@jennifergraham3752]

Along the same lines as the sealed bottles of vegetables, we also had bottles of bath oil with dried flowers etc submerged in it. They also usually had a wax seal over the stopper. I completely forgot about these until now

[@llamaindisguise]

My coworkers and I just did a little baby shower for my coworker and his wife for their first born. They didn't want us to get them gifts but we wanted to do something. Knowing having a baby means big ticket expenses like a crib, stroller, car seat, etc, everyone from the team pitched in a few bucks ($10-20) and we wrote them a check. We ended up collecting $500 which I think will help put a nice dent in their baby expenses while being respectful of their boundaries.

[@lorrilj7289]

I think we’re going to see mid 90’s trends come around now. I’m seeing it in a lot of fabric choices for upholstery. We had your green mug Becky , but broke it recently. We had a yellow one and a blue one, both long gone, but still have the pink one.

Its funny, because she used to keep some clothing for years, and then, they were back in style! ❤

There was this one blip in home design I remember from the late 90’s early 2000’s that was like hedge witch but make it modern. Sort of a storybook style. Herbs hanging from the ceiling, thatched cottages, primitive furniture. That’s what I want back.

[@halfblood100]

I have seen people get into pickling and fermenting in clear asian fermenting jars. Which is very nice looking, but it's also practical, and maybe that's where it will go. I mean, food is very expensive now so maybe people will start fermenting as a nice looking way of practically extending the life of your food. Almost like a flower arrangement.

[@mon4711]

Since the trends are changing so fast, and as creators you probably have to follow them and recreate them for millions of followers... I would love to see more emphasis in upcycling easier stuff. I know you have done it a lot already in the past! Doesn't even have to be complex, I want to give a unique example: the creator Minimalist Paik uses carton packaging inside out to organize her house similar to the minimalism aesthetic, but without buying any plastic containers. Loved the collab, have a nice dayy 🌺

[@Gelime_]

As someone who does ceramics, I gotta say, not all glazes are made the same and not all are food safe. I would be careful drinking out of a flowerpot, some of the glazes used for stuff like that is not food safe!

Connie Willis wrote a wonderful short fiction piece called “The Bellweather” about trend makers, based on the herd behavior of sheep. The bellweather is the most intelligent, tuned-in sheep, and the rest of the herd follow her lead when, for example, running from danger, etc. Fun stuff, 10/10 recommend.

Because trends move so fast, I feel like they are actually losing their effectiveness as a trend, or even the point. By the time I see something enough to warm up to it and want it, it's already on the way out and everyone's moved onto something else. It's kind of a positive thing though, I can just use the trends to see a bunch of new things and decide on my own if I like it, because there's no point in trying to keep up anyway.

[@iamneoniceowls]

I feel like the jars of food didn't start as a thing to never eat or touch. Early adopters were probably people with the time and energy to make sure their preserved food was displayed beautifully and then once the trend took off and got to people who didn't have the time and money-- they didn't touch it because they couldn't maintain it. Similar to all the "decanting" stuff now. Like I can totally imagine the decanting/ friedgescape mom who tells her kids to only take stuff from the hidden refill containers and not from the stuff that's on display.

I feel like the 80's resurgence has already come & gone. With shows like Stranger Things that brought back this pure 80's style nostalgia, with its very geometrical shapes, harsh angles, overly saturated designs & bold colours, what appears now reminds me more of the more soft, rounded and pastel designs of the early 90's, which you'd see in cars, furniture & decor items. This new iteration, with bolder colours, might be a mix of both time periods... As for the preserved foods, I feel, at the contrary, they're a testament of pre-industrual times, & times of scarcity, when seasons dictated what fruits & veggies you'd get in only certain periods of the year, and ppl had to make preserves to still have access to them when they weren't freshly available anymore. Still a tradition, mostly found in Mediterranean sunny regions, vacationers then found and brought some back as souvenir/decor & it took off as such.
