“Pinterest attracts planners, which means people come to the platform for inspiration for the next thing they want to do, try or buy,” says Director of Marketing at Pinterest Louise Richardson.
“This gives us a unique view of what the future holds and what the next big trends are likely to be – it’s a bit like having a crystal ball!
“When it comes to 2022, there’s a trend for everyone, whether you’re planning your next adventure, trying a new recipe or exploring a new look. My personal favourite? Dopamine dressing!
