#1 Sea Witchery
The sea is not only salt water, sun, and wind. It is also a variety of iridescent shades, wavy wet hair, mermaid-style manicures, and much, much more. The sea has a deep variety of images—and they will all be here.

#3 Cherry-Coded
The entire palette of cherry shades—from early spring flowers to ripe, juicy cherries—is at your complete disposal. Pinterest predicts an abundance of cherry tones in moodboards and menus for users of all ages in 2025.

For several years now, Pinterest has been making predictions about what professional designers—and just ordinary people who are fond of beautiful things—will be guided by in the next twelve months. For example, a year ago, the top trends were "Slowcation" (the main idea was more lazy mornings in bed!), the concept of "One person's trash is another person's treasure," and the revival of vintage jazz.
I can't say anything about lazy mornings in bed (I still haven't managed to have at least one in 2024), and I enjoyed jazz long before 2024. But the idea of diversity in assessing values definitely made sense to me personally. Iin any case, Pinterest knows what they're talking about, right?
#4 Castlecore
Medieval is the new modern! The magnificent classics of Gothic castles, knightly armor, and accessories are returning to firmly settle everywhere around us, and in our design, too. We take the best from the past—and are inspired by the immortal classics!

#5 Surreal Soirees
Surrealism at its best! Various phantasmagoric elements, decorations, and gravity-defying centerpieces. Just recall the incredible colorful covers of old sci-fi books—and let them inspire you to the fullest.

#6 Fisherman Aesthetic
The sea isn't just mermaids. The sea is also fishermen. According to Pinterest, we should prepare for an abundance of maritime tunes in everything from clothing to tattoos. Cable-knit jumpers, sardine tattoos, and stripes—even if you live a thousand miles from the nearest coast, that's not an excuse not to awaken your inner sailor.

So what do we have planned for 2025? The cherry on top is... well, literally, the cherry on top. That's right, cherry colors will be incredibly trending, in all their richness of shades—from a lighter cherry martini to a deep and rich dark cherry red. The next trend is Aura beauty, which means makeup that is selected according to your personal aura. That is, colors that best match your inner state and energy field.
And in the Top 3—Rococo revival. That is, the return of luxurious accessories, classic corset dresses, lushly decorated tables... If you have watched the recent Jeanne du Barry movie starring Johnny Depp, then any of the costumes from the film could become pure inspiration for you.
#7 Rococo Revival
Ruffles, frills, corset dresses, lace... Rococo with its amazing, and sometimes even over-the-top, sense of style is here again. Not only in clothes and accessories, but also in interior design. Why wait so long? Set your New Year's table in the ornate Rococo style for the holiday!

#8 Dolled Up
After Barbie re-conquered the world on the silver screen, in 2025, Pinterest invites us to look at the surrounding reality through the cozy window of a dollhouse. Doll-like makeup, cozy room decor—as if it came out of the display case of a toy store—all of this will be on trend.

#9 Rebel Floats
Have you noticed that retro never goes out of style? This time, Pinterest invites us to get inspired by the classic all-American retro diner. A little old-school soda along with the timeless traditions of old classic movies—why not, it's so stylish?

Of course, no one can guarantee that every single predictions will definitely come true in 2025. After all, the world has seen many predictions from the greatest authorities in their field fail completely. For example, at the end of the 19th century, several famous scientists sincerely believed that one of the main problems of society in a hundred years would be... the disposal of horse manure.
After all, in their opinion, the number of horse-drawn carriages would grow along with the growth of the planet's population and, accordingly, the amount of manure on the streets would increase as well. But a couple of years later, people invented the car—and the prediction failed...
And many people also remember the legendary phrase, "640 kilobytes ought to be enough for anybody," widely attributed to Bill Gates. By the way, the size of the text document in which I am writing this post is already over 700 kilobytes.
#10 Terra Futura
2025, according to Pinterest, will bring even more of this unique eco-living vibe to representatives of different generations, with its recyclable fashion, community spaces, and self-sufficient gardens. The aesthetics of the modern world with an awareness of its fragility.

#11 Primary Play
If you've previously only let your inner child out occasionally, then in 2025, Pinterest suggests doing it on a permanent basis. Don't hold back, use incredible combinations of bright and playful tones literally everywhere! Welcome to the playground!

#12 Goddess Complex
Be ready for some really divine vibes—Pinterest invites you to discover the goddess in you, as in, the antique frescoes and majestic statues of ancient Egypt. With all those gold facials, goddess braids, and sublime nail designs—why not?

On the other hand, when it comes to design and fashion trends, Pinterest doesn't so much predict trends as it actually creates them, much like the Pantone Institute determines the "color of the year." Therefore, with Pinterest's huge user base, its years of accumulated experience, and artificial intelligence, it can almost guarantee that at least half of these predictions will come true.
#13 Pickley Fix
Just pickle everything—even things that weren't too bland before! The crunchy sound of the gherkin is becoming an absolute trend, along with pickle cakes, pickle fries, and pickle literally everything. If it looks out of the ordinary, why shouldn't it be trendy?

#14 Mix & Maximalist
More, more, and more, in both decor and clothing! Pinterest is anticipating incredible combinations of colors, styles, and textures. And lots of layering, too. Some will call it madness, others—eclecticism. We'll call it stylish maximalism, and we'll be 100% right.

#15 Seeing Double
Don't be afraid to copy—just call it synchronicity. Coordinated outfits will rule the world in 2025, according to Pinterest. While matching outfits used to be preserved for twins, now we'll sync up with other people's looks just because it's so damn cool.

#19 Chaos Cakes
Forget about perfectly decorated cakes and nicely placed icings! With 2025 comes the aesthetic of childish drawings—and sweets are following this wacky trend, too. The sillier your cake looks, the more stylish it is. At least in 2025. At least, according to Pinterest.
