The Eclectic Grandpa Trend

Because 2024 is the year to share closets with our elders.

POSTED BY JODI WHELAN

Grandpa Core is well and truly back in style—retro vibes in clothing only from now on. Who would have thought 2024 would be the year that it would be cool to share your clothes with your grandpa rather than it being used as an insult?

 

 
Think Tyler The Creator, Gigi Hadid, and Zoë Kravitz for inspiration; these stars know how to style the aesthetic perfectly. Pinterest has some of the best looks and mood boards to elaborate on this craze. Use old photographs of your grandparents to view how they used to wear their clothing when they were young, then add the Gen Z twist to it, and you will achieve this style!

 

 

This style may include items such as:

1. Cardigans and Sweaters: 

Chunky knit cardigans, cable-knit sweaters, and pullovers are commonly associated with a "grandpa" style.

 

 

2. Flannel Shirts:

Plaid or checkered flannel shirts are considered classic and comfortable, often associated with a more laid-back and casual look. 

 

 

3. Tweed Jackets: 

Classic and durable tweed jackets can be part of a grandpa-inspired wardrobe, giving off a timeless and sophisticated vibe.

 

 

4. Corduroy Pants: 

Comfortable and versatile, corduroy pants are often associated with a more traditional and casual style.

 

 

5. Braces or Suspenders:

Adding vintage braces or suspenders are sometimes included in grandpa-inspired outfits. 

 

 

6. Flat Caps or Newsboy Hats:

These classic headwear options are often associated with an older, more traditional style. 

 

 

Also, add colorful knits, quilted jackets, and some prints to incorporate this trend effortlessly into your wardrobe. Because who wouldn't want to channel their inner grandpa?
