New Nostalgia
Y2K is an Internet aesthetic based around products, styles, and fashion of the late 1990s and early 2000s. These styles succeeded the Memphis Design aesthetic of the mid-1980s to mid-1990s. The name Y2K is derived from an abbreviation coined by programmer David Eddy for the year 2000 and its potential computer errors. The Y2K aesthetic can include synthetic or metallic materials, inflatable furniture, and computer interfaces of the dotcom era.
As the Y2K term gained more mainstream usage in the 2020s, it began to be used more broadly to encompass 2000s fashion aesthetics, with the term Cybercore being occasionally used as a synonym for the original retrofuturistic aesthetic.
