The 20 trends from the "Pinterest Predicts 2025" report

The social network Pinterest publishes each year a report about the main trends that it considers will prevail throughout the following twelve months.

Its creators explain their "Pinterest Predicts 2025" report, available in Spanish among other languages, as follows: "With consumer insights and predictive analytics, we identify Pinterest's emerging trends for 2025. These trends reveal what people will search for, try, and buy across all verticals. From maximalist rococo decor to fisherman-inspired fashions, there are 20 new Pinterest trends for you to explore."

To identify consumer trends, the Pinterest team analyzes "billions of data points from keyword searches and the platform's visual search technology." Then the team "selects and refines emerging trends that have the highest growth potential, with the help of predictive analytics and platform engagement signals."

These are the 20 trends for this year 2025:
