In fact, this style is making a comeback into women's fashion, and it's becoming noticeable in many major stores such as [Forever 21](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/forever-fall-by-just-black-denim), [J. Crew](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-new-yorker-x-j-crew) and [Anthropologie](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/emi-jay). For those on a tight budget, this is a great way to achieve the in-season look at an affordable cost. The materials needed include any pair of jeans or pants, round tips of a pencil eraser and fabric paint or screen printing ink. Simply dip the eraser tip into the paint and then carefully and strategically dot away. The end result is impressive, and best of all you can choose any color desired. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.2/10 - Popularity: 66% | Activity: 53% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Hip Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/hipfashion) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Circular Painted Leggings:** Opportunity for fashion retailers to incorporate DIY designs into their product offerings, allowing customers to customize their own clothing. - **Polka-dotted Pants:** Opportunity for fabric paint and screen printing ink manufacturers to create easy-to-use, durable products specifically for DIY fashion projects. - **Affordable DIY Fashion:** Opportunity for online platforms or apps to provide tutorials and resources for budget-conscious consumers to create their own trendy fashion pieces. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Fashion Retail:** Opportunity for fashion retailers to incorporate DIY designs into their product offerings, allowing customers to customize their own clothing. - **Art and Craft Supplies:** Opportunity for fabric paint and screen printing ink manufacturers to create easy-to-use, durable products specifically for DIY fashion projects. - **Online Tutorial Platforms:** Opportunity for online platforms or apps to provide tutorials and resources for budget-conscious consumers to create their own trendy fashion pieces. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Silver Polka Dot Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/papergirl-paris-and-beams.md) - [Leftover Househouse Paint Artwork](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paint-drop.md) - [Digital Pattern Projection Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ditto-sewing.md) - [Paint-Adorned Rugged Fashion Boots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/1460-8eyelet-boot.md) - [Eco-Friendly Denim Dyes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retro-dye.md) - [AI-Powered Fashion Design Platforms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/make-the-dot.md) - [Custom Party Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/converse-and-charli-xcx.md) - [Polka-Dotted Collaborative Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gt2160-sneaker-2.md) - [Supermarket-Inspired Nail Art Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/festival-inspired-nail-art.md)
