Hipster culture

Hipster culture emerged in the late 2000s as a subculture characterized by a distinct aesthetic and lifestyle that embraces alternative and indie music, artisanal food, vintage fashion, and a general disdain for mainstream trends. Hipsters typically value creativity, sustainability, and authenticity, often favoring local businesses and handmade goods over mass-produced items. They are associated with urban environments and can be seen enjoying coffee shops, thrift stores, and independent art galleries. While the term can carry stereotypes, hipster culture reflects a broader movement towards individuality and environmental consciousness in contemporary society.
