Twinning in the fashion industry is a concept that is quite simple and easy to follow. You need two people wearing matching outfits. But with fashion enthusiasts and Instagram celebrities always doing their best to get more followers and likes, twinning has become far more creative than ever.

You can have completely different outfits but with the same color or pattern. Or you can have different colored or patterned outfits that are designed the same or similarly. But those are still basics. With graphic designers and fashion enthusiasts turning it up a notch, you can wear outfits with the same theme or fabric or shape or print and rock the twinning trend with finesse.

Everyone! Anyone! You don’t need a twin to twin. Whether you are sisters, friends, colleagues, partners, a couple, a father-son duo, or a mother-daughter duo, twinning is for everyone. As long as you have a person willing to hop on the twinning trend with you, your fashion game is on.

With celebrities like our queen Beyonce posting pictures with her daughter Blue Ivy in matching floral printed outfits, mother-daughter duos all around the world have been clamoring to follow the twinning trend. So, if you have a baby, twin up wearing mom and baby matching PJs for a lazy Sunday breakfast. Make sure to click loads of pictures and upload them on your social media with a #twinningiswinning.

Twinning & K-pop

With the K-pop wave taking the world by storm, many people from every country have now become aware of Korean culture. And if not the Korean culture as a whole, everyone knows BTS – the K-pop boy band on the way to win hearts with their ‘Love Yourself’ campaign.

Twinning isn't exactly a new concept and it has been around for quite some time. But with the South Korean K-pop culture sweeping the world with their comfortable yet trendy fashion, the twinning trend started becoming popular internationally. Twinning is a concept very prevalent in the Korean youth – especially among young couples.

The BFFs

Twinning with your bestie is the best. Back in the day, best friends would exchange a matching pendant with each other or even friendship rings. In Korean culture, exchanging rings with a close friend is a popular phenomenon especially among the youths. If you and your friend are into fashion, then it is time for you to try the twinning trend.

Even if your fashion style is different, there is always something classic you can use to wear matching outfits. For example, denim is a classic since the hip-hop days and will remain so forever. So, pair up with your favorite denim article with your BFF, and don't miss out on this trend.

Trend-setter Couples

The social media couples don’t rest! By posting pictures and videos of activities they do together leaving in wake millions of single people feeling depressed and alone, the twinning trend became a major thing on Tik-Tok as well as Instagram. With South Korean couples popularizing the cutting-edge trendy twinning couple outfits, the syncing style among couples is now a loved fashion trend.

The Olsen Twins

With the Olsen twins always looking perfect with their high-end branded outfits, the trend to wear matching clothes among twins came back albeit a little slowly. The trend to dress-up twins in matching clothes can be traced back to the 18th century. With parents dressing up their kids in identical clothing, they often would get confused between the two.
