Grandma's Elegance Returns: What is "Nonnacore"?

A new trend is taking over the catwalks and social media: nonnacore. Inspired by grandmothers' wardrobes, this style combines nostalgia with vintage aesthetics, bringing to the spotlight silk scarves with bold prints, small handbags and classic skirts that look like they came out of a Balkan grandmother's closet.

The term has been adopted by international fashion magazines and bloggers, while pop culture icons like Rihanna have made it part of their style, turning it into a phenomenon. On social media, #nonnacore is often accompanied by descriptions like “vintage, quirky, and full of exaggerated charm.”

This return to forgotten elegance comes as a counterpoint to modern minimalism: it's bold, emotional, and invites you to explore a more nostalgic side of fashion. From the town square to the catwalk, nonnacore is proving that grandma fashion never gets old.
