NEWS SUMMARY
Retro Christmas decorations are trending again. The trend started last year, but in 2025 it has gone over-the-top. People are filling their homes and trees with bold, mismatched ornaments, tinsel, foil garlands, paper chains and brightly coloured lights, so it looks like Christmas has exploded in the room. Many hunt for nostalgic décor in shops or make DIY decorations. The decorations are inspired by the 1970s, ’80s and ’90s, and the trend is driven by nostalgia, as people want to recreate the festive atmosphere of their childhood. Experts say the trend reflects a desire for comfort, joy and meaningful traditions in uncertain times.
