Subject: Trends and Geography
Written By: jakepaulthebigman on 05/26/20 at 6:05 pm
Guys, how long do trends take to reach other countries? For example, grunge and flannel as we all know, peaked around 1993-1994. What about for other countries and regions in America? Say, the Far East, the Indian subcontinent, the Middle East, Mexico, Oceania etc. Or in America, our very own midwest?

Trends then were different than trends now which are instantaneous due to social media.

Back in 1492, it was three months for trends to cross the now known as Atlantic Ocean, long before social media was invented.

The trend of wearing string vest and a knotted hankerchief in hot weather has not traveled far?

The floodgates of the British Invasion were opened in this country the moment the Beatles appeared on the Ed Sullivan Show in February, 1964. But many of the bands (Beatles, Hollies, etc) had already been having hits in England for at least a year or two before then.
