It’s important to note, however, that Pinterest’s Halloween data only accounted for costume ideas that were seeing the biggest year-over-year search increases, and not the costume ideas that were most-searched overall.

Pinterest data shows that searches for “Stranger Things costume ideas” has significantly increased over 2021. “In sync with this year’s major launches, searches around ‘Stranger Things,’ ‘Elvis,’ ‘Top Gun’ and ‘The Lord of the Rings’ are trending on the platform.” Cosplayers dress as characters from “Stranger Things” at a comic convention in the United Kingdom. “2022 is all about costumes with pop culture themes,” reads a portion of Pinterest’s blog post on findings. Pinterest, an online social-media platform for sharing images, inspiration and DIY projects, has sorted through its internal data to determine the 2022 costume ideas that users were increasingly searching for - and the results suggest more folks are planning to go as Elvis, Avril Lavigne and “Top Gun” pilots than in previous years. And while you’re probably not ready to adopt an entirely quirky wardrobe, you can add a teaspoon of sweetness with some twee activities, like sipping tea from dainty floral cups, reading Alice in Wonderland (a first edition) and embroidering love notes into cloth napkins.(NEXSTAR) – Don’t be surprised if you see, like, nine Avril Lavignes roaming the neighborhood on Halloween night. Whimsical pieces like frilly socks, polka-dotted sweaters with lace collars, mary janes and thick black spectacles all set the twee tone. It’s the sartorial equivalent of riding an old-fashioned bicycle through Tompkins Square Park with raspberry thumbprint cookies in tow.

In case you’ve forgotten (or were in grade school at the time), Twee is the saccharine hipster style you might find in a Wes Anderson movie, a manic pixie dreamgirl-inspired Tumblr page or the ModCloth website circa 2007. According to TikTok, the “twee” aesthetic is set to re-enter pop culture this year (or maybe just TikTok culture).
