“For our Gen Z and Gen Alpha customers, swim is a meaningful form of self-expression and a category where they define their personal style, especially as they head into summer. Our Youth Report, which tracks cultural and consumer trends across younger audiences, highlights the rise of anemoia, with Gen Z gravitating toward past eras like Y2K and remixing them through a modern lens. This collection reflects that mindset through updated fits, styling, and versatility,” said Richard Cox, Chief Merchandising Officer of Pacsun.
Pacsun’s Youth Report gathers insights from Gen Z and Gen Alpha consumers regarding identity, self-expression and style preferences. The report indicates increased interest in reinterpreting past trends rather than following them directly, which the company states informs its product strategy and storytelling approach.
The swim collection is available now on the company’s website.
Pacsun was founded in 1980 in Newport, California, and operates as a specialty retailer offering contemporary fashion, streetwear and activewear brands.
