There are plenty of purely functional paper plates that are printed without designs and few that are printed with designs that appeal to a design-conscious consumer's desire to entertain with style. The DesignLoveFest x Cheeky paper plates come in a number of black, white and colored designs that would be suited to any celebration. In addition to this, there are a few charming [plastic cups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-hefty-party-cups) to complement the festive table sets. This is just one [blogger collaboration](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/target-collection) that has recently emerged. Others include retailers and brands striking up partnerships to launch entire fashion collections, in-store installations and more with help from the expert eye and and do-it-all talents of a blogger. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.5/10 - Popularity: 59% | Activity: 38% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Kitchen](https://www.trendhunter.com/kitchen) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Blogger Collaborations:** Opportunity for retailers and brands to partner with influential bloggers to create innovative products and market them to a design-conscious audience. - **Design-conscious Paper Plates:** Growing demand for paper plates with stylish and fun designs that cater to consumers looking to entertain with style. - **Fashion Collaboration Trend:** Rise of collaborations between fashion retailers/brands and bloggers to create exclusive fashion collections and in-store installations. ### Where This Applies - **Retail:** Opportunity for retailers to collaborate with bloggers to create unique products and tap into their loyal audience. - **Design:** Growth potential for designers to create paper plate designs that cater to the design-conscious consumer looking for stylish entertaining options. - **Fashion:** Fashion retailers and brands can collaborate with influential bloggers to create fashion collections and installations that attract a wider audience and generate buzz. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Colorful Enamelware Plates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/studio-tigress.md) - [Hand-Painted Ceramic Plate Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/destree-x-cabana.md) - [PB&J-Inspired Sandwich Plates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pbj-inspired-sandwich-plates.md) - [Handmade Dessert Plates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/carolina-k.md) - [Designer Stationary Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paper-source-1.md) - [All-in-One Eco Party Plates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/knork-eco-party-plate.md) - [Vibrantly Designed Playful Tableware](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hem.md) - [Seasonal Floral-Printed Dishware](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/corelle.md) - [Whimsical Patterned Diverse Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kate-spade-and-target.md)
