Trends bring a sense of unity and diversity to the design process. They transcend boundaries, bridging cultures, and bringing together various forms of creative expression. Two such influences — Barbiecore and Mermaidcore — have revolutionized the Indian wear market, infusing it with a youthful and vivacious charm. By blending contemporary fashion with the timeless elegance of ethnic wear, women are embracing them to express their individuality and celebrate femininity. On one hand, as the Barbiecore trend‘s vibrant hues have redefined traditional pink sarees, lehengas, and salwar suits a modern twist with eye-catching shades ranging from bubblegum pink to electric fuchsia, the Mermaidcore trend with its flowing silhouettes and captivating use of sequins, has resulted in a fusion of fantasy and elegance.
