Everything To Know About Unicore

 

Get ready to stand out like a unicorn in a field full of horses!

We went all in with coastal grandma, cottagecore and barbiecore aesthetics, now get ready for Unicore.

From dopamine dressing to festivals and travel returning for summer 2022, it seems we are all looking for fresh and bright ways to reflect the return of freedom in our wardrobe, with holographic and shiny materials at the front and centre.

 

Across Google, social, and consumer data, searches for ‘holographic prom dress’ have shot up by 75%, ‘sequin dress’ (80%), ‘pastel dresses’ (24%), rainbow dress (11%), hair clip ponytail (51%) and much more.

 

With Starbucks drinks and cute accessories, the unicorn trend was a craze in food and drink in the early 2000s but now we are seeing it seep into our wardrobes and aesthetic. From Dua Lipa and Hailey Bieber’s sequin and reflective dresses, to Beyonce’s recent album shoot and Gigi Hadid’s mermaid hair, celebrities are also influencing the surge in demand for the aesthetic and people are after all things majestic.

 

Some of us may already be rocking the trend without being aware of it, but with searches continuing to grow, it’s time to name the aesthetic, celebrate it and rep it.
