Iโm a millennial who grew up in Portland. I started seeing what is being defined as the โhipsterโ aesthetic around 2003 at house shows as a teenager. I remember thinking it was refreshing seeing young men wearing well-fitting and tailored outfits compared to what boys were wearing at my high school- mainly polos, baggy jeans, and basketball shorts. In my mind they were like modern newsies, which signaled to everyone else they wereโฆdifferent. Counterculture as it goes. It only took a few years for it to become mainstream and seeing ultra skinny jeans go from a punk silhouette to the norm.

Sis - every time you say 'hipster' I feel like one of the animals from the Planet Earth documentaries. I can't believe we're so old that our teens/twenties items are now being deconstructed in video essays. It's crazy how detailed you've gone. I've always found it so interesting as someone from the global south / a developing nation how trends from America / the western world came to us - also funnily enough we would buy clothes that were made here but were meant for export for the western market - they were called 'export rejects' - there were whole markets where we could buy oversized tees, leggings, boho dresses, keffiyahs, fucking fedoras (of which I had a sad phase), short dresses with tights (functional for a place where you can't really go out showing much leg safely). We had our own versions of gentrified neighourhoods and small businesses - that then got a second and third wave of gentrification and mainstreaming. For me as a punk/grunge/indie kid - to be obsessed with music and even somewhat stupid tumblr pages, seeing those represented and our own tiny bourgeoning scenes - it's kind of fun to look back at it all.

Millennial here. You nailed it. I miss the hipster days a lot.
Edit: As to the gentrification problem: Don't forget that the 2008 crisis left many millennials financially disenfranchised as well, which led to taking up space in historically poor neighborhoods. The rise in small and bespoke businesses was our way to keep afloat in an otherwise unfriendly economy. This culture and alternative economy was majorly wiped put during Covid, and has yet to recover, leaving the now 30 and 40--something millennials disenfranchised yet again...

I looovveeddd the pretentiousness and weird vibes of hipsters. They really did put me on to so much good music that I had never heard before.

I'd just like to point out that most people I knew during peak "hipster" era, who they themselves could have been labeled as such, preferred smoking cheap cigarettes (or "splurged" on American spirits) to vapes and jokingly refereed to it as "analog" smoking.

I'm 28 now and grow up with the hipster aesthetic as a teenage art student. Alot of my friends still dress this way and partake in "hipster" lifestyle choices. While a lot of people will call it ironic and in some ways it can be, I think the appeal was simply to appreciate and enjoy what we had and give it new life. Hipster fashion was celebrating a lot of things from the last and saying "let's not let go of this" and I notice alot of modern trends simply dont feel like they want to honor the past. Alot of my hipster friends actually became closer to their grandparents or parents wanting to wear their old hand me downs or learned a lot of history and skills from this aesthetic. I learned DJing, photography, repurposing, how to kiss a girl (lol), and even some mechanical work.

Gotta love the unspoken, but consistent visual references to Alexa Chung as the ultimate example!

i rember how much this style had a urge to push back against mcbling and the rise of "not like other girl"

Hipsters got a lot of hate (I may have been one of those haters.) But looking back at it now, it all seems so innocent, compared to the styles and trends that have come after it.

I feel old now that most hipsters are in their 40s and having kids. The hipster trend was awesome and I miss it. Neighborhoods were so relaxed when they moved in but what sucked was that neighborhoods became so expensive due to the racist part of the real estate industry. I was a hipster in 2014 til 2017 when it went out of fashion. I pray the hipster movement makes a comeback though.

This is literally just all of Portland. I can see why Portland grew so much bc a lot of people were attracted by that mythos.

One thing I think this video would have benefited from is some sort of discussion about the music scenes associated with hipsters. I understand your focu is on aesthetics, but as with most subcultures and counterculture movements, music is an extremely important component.

Just watched a documentary about a trend I was a part of in my teens/early 20's. Of course I would never admit it. Like a any real hipster, you never admitted you were a hipster. I guess it really is all over if I am admitting I was one, or at least wanted to be.

I still wear many of these separate items like the vintage pattern button ups and also still loooove a tight on the bottom, chunky on top moment.
The 2010s were when I first started considering fashion, so my taste will I think always be at least a little influenced by that era :')

I wonder how many hours - days - weeks it costs to make a video like this one... Well done ๐๐ป

Wow you really hit it on the head with this one. The gentrification and fast fashion. The social media making it less authentic and more diluted then previous countercultures, and even the appropriation of ethnic fashions with the top buttoned plaid shirts. Very well researched. You forgot about the Wolf t-shirts everyone wore tho lol

36:29 Okay, there it is! You talked about androgyny as the main reason for skinny jeans, but I'd argue they're functionally linked to the bike trend, because your hem can't get caught in your gear chain. And the bikes tie into the recession, because you don't have to pay for gas, and the simpler a bike is, the easier it is to fix it yourself.

i love 80s fashion but the 2010s did such a bad job at recycling 80s trends. I do feel nostalgia for that era but I remember even then thinking the fashion looked bad

Polyvore now would be a niche fetish site

Wow, you left NO stone unturned. Hipster fashion is so much more understandable once you have the entire context and history of its origins on the table.
