@leisure.fish: Please tell me y’all can see what I mean I feel crazy 😭 I can make a vid explaining it I promise I can #medievalrevival #medieval #medievaltiktok #aesthetic #aesthetics
Fun fact back in the 1800s there was a revival of handmade craftsmanship because they were tired of the industrial made goods that were lesser in quality :)

absolutely, the early 2020s were so cyber-focused that we are getting a reactionary movement toward medieval/renaissance aesthetics again

yes! my theory is that it is an active rejection of techno feudalism using the very aesthetics often associated with medieval feudalism. like, if we’re gonna be treated like peasants we might as well dress the part.

Belph :
The 60s had a medieval revival because of the SAME reasons, because they feared being replaced by machines in the work industry. There’s many essays in this and elements in 60s fashion, as well as people’s obsession with lord of the rings.

I can honestly See us going into a dark age and having a new renaissance after the bubble pops. So much is built on AI now and I really hope we have a creative bloom when it’s dead

no you’re right but medieval is the wrong word to use here AND it’s been a thing since like the start of the pandemic so i wouldn’t say it’s “developing” i’d say it’s coming out of it’s niche with the rise of AI. but yeah you’re absolutely right and it’s the same thing happening/that happened with Renn Faire culture and LARP culture imo, they’re not developing or new persay, they’re just rising out of their niche because it’s what the people are yearning for.

See I’ve been obsessed with all things medieval and medieval revival since I was about 8 and I used to get made fun of for it and now it’s “acceptable” and this makes perfect sense to me. Literally see it in how ppl respond to the Renn Fair
