A decade has passed, but 2016 is trending again. The year that left a lasting mark on fashion, beauty, and media is making a comeback across social media platforms. From oversaturated Instagram edits and Snapchat dog filters to viral challenges and iconic pop culture moments, people are revisiting an era from the past. Trends like the mannequin challenge, water bottle flipping, and Pokémon Go are being revived. This throwback trend gives people a shared sense of nostalgia. Many of these trends were visible at Monmouth College in 2016, where students embraced the popular trends of the time.
