"Spotting trends can be difficult, but they often come from a ripple, then as they catch on they build into a wave. The beginning of the year we saw pandas building a trend, a few different pop culture items went big in the media, and we are seeing growth in music style shirts, like bright concert shirts, headphones, or musical instruments." - Darren Names Pop Culture Carries a lot of Weight in the Fashion Industry This year's t shirt trends have been made popular through old school classics and unique styles of artwork. The main trends stem from old comics, video games, and movies that are not in the media any more, but make a memorable vintage t shirt design. For example, the 'Pixel Heroes' is a grid of superheroes drawn up in 8 bit video game style. Then there's 'Childhood Hero,' from the famous arcade game, and 'Time Fiction' a mash up of the new and old movies. Pop culture is prime location to spot cultural trends, then they are redefined into fashion.
