It’s been said that nostalgia runs in about 20-year cycles.
In the 70’s, for example, one of the biggest shows on TV celebrated the golden age of leather jackets, 50’s diners, and greaser haircuts. Later, the humble 2010’s saw the rise and fall of 90’s nostalgia. But time ticks on, everyday.
Which can only mean one thing: it’s finally time to reassess and celebrate the fashion trends of the turn of the millennium. Think chrome. Think bubblegum pink. Think the dotcom boom. And where else to show off your cutting-edge taste in the hottest nostalgia trends than your suitcase?
Oops, they did it again.
Enter: Away, our favorite suitcase brand. Just today, they dropped their brand new Y2K collection, capitalizing on one of the year’s hottest trends with trusted, sturdy suitcases in a range of turn-of-the-century colorways, including Dotcom, Bling, and Jinx.
Slip on your platform shoes and squeeze into your low-rise jeans, and check out Away’s super-hip, perfectly-tuned nostalgia collection below.
The smallest suitcase Away offers, The Carry-On, has become a travel staple, sized to fit perfectly into an overhead bin, or in the trunk of your rental. Travel light, and in year-2000 style, in this glossy blue Dotcom colorway from Away’s limited-time Y2k collection. We promise: it can fit your Juicy Couture sweatsuit!
Imagine how much of your CD collection you could fit into Away’s Bigger Carry-On, in Bling, maybe the sleekest colorway of their new collection. The Bigger-Carry on is perfect for slightly longer trips, and should still fit on the airplane, whether you’re traveling to LA or Tokyo.
Check your bag while others check you out, with The Medium, from Away, in Cyber. The glossy black finish calls to Y2K-era tech to mind, with enough room inside to pack a 2000’s-era desktop.
If you were worried that Away was going to forget to shed light on bubblegum pink, allow us to assuage your fears. The Large, in Away’s two-toned pink colorway, Jinx, is the largest suitcase Away offers, as the name suggests. We think this would pair great with one of those purses with a little dog in it. Let’s bring those back.
