Fashion trends are created by color prospects proposed by fashion forecasters which are then put on the market two years after selection. If being sold on the market in less than two years, forecasters look for trends that will represent current societal interests, cultural backgrounds, and the values and ideas of the consumer. As fashion trends become increasingly more popular, people want something new to replace it, meaning trends are often quick to go. Inspiration for trends are drawn upon by fashion forecasters, who look to art, music, pop culture, media, and technology for ideas on upcoming trends.

Fashion in Social Media

Social media provides a platform where a universal audience can view and engage with fashion from all over the world. This has given rise to social media fashion influencers, who are individuals with a large enough following and online presence to deliver fashion content effectively yet aesthetically through posts of themselves wearing the merchandise. Their large audience can quickly turn a fashion piece into a fashion trend, making social media fashion influencers a popular choice for fashion brands and companies to promote and sell their product through. Instagram, a popular photo-sharing app, was deemed the most powerful domain for fashion insight and influencing others to hop on fashion trends. These platforms allow consumers to follow their fashion brand and it provides the brand an opportunity to create an identity of it's own for consumers to know and follow.
