Zoomer Green: the color of a generation

Is there really all this behind a color? Can a shade of green represent the moods of a generation?

If Millennial Pink spoke to us about gender fluidity, the Zoomer Green speaks to us of ecological concern, digital evolutionbut also of the ever more pressing desire to take back our freedom (it is not the green traffic light the universal symbol of the green light?), expressing the values ​​and desires of Generation Z, or those born between the end of the 1990s and the beginning of the 2000s.

Not only Bottega Veneta. There is no brand except in their collections Spring / Summer 2022 do not offer at least one accessory in this shade of green.

And what about the green light towards a promising future? For that we will still have to wait. But fashion, as always an expression of the spirit of the times, has managed to condense all our aspirations for normality and peace in this exaggerated, bright, bold hue. A green crying: I’m here, look at me! I want to live.
