Does he have anything to do with the resurgence of this aesthetic?

Yeah, I think at the very top of the year, we were sort of asking, what is this next year going to look like?

How is Trump going to affect aesthetics?

And I think there was definitely a sense that his...

sort of gilded toilet, bad suit look, you know, had seeped its way into fashion, into culture.

But I don't think Boom Boom really took hold in the way that Normcore took hold.

It was, I think, you know, in the age of TikTok, a new TikTok trend every five seconds.

there's not these like sort of over big sweeping trends anymore.

I think it, I really saw it pop up in very more subtle ways, sort of trickle.

I don't think it was, oh my God, the 80s are everywhere.

It was more like, huh, where did you get that?

Like that seems like it, you know, it's a reference to something that has layers to it.

Yeah.

Trends are so different now because of the Internet, because of the TikTok of it all.

You know, I remember Cottagecore and these things stick around, but they can like be in these small pockets.

Do you think Boom Boom is going to stick around for the rest of this presidency, kind of in this small pocket kind of way?

Yeah.

Definitely.

I mean, I can see, I don't think it's like, it's so simple as like people see Trump, so they want to dress like Trump.

Like that's, I don't, I don't think that's it.
