No expense was spared to amuse the A-list guest list, which even included [royalty](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crown-afternoon-tea). This included a [human sized cake](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/little-big-cake-bento-boxes), which I should hope was a decoration. Tatler Magazine was started in 1709 as a pamphlet that revealed gossip, which was distributed three times a week. The 300th birthday party happened in the Stable Yard of St. James’s Palace, in Lancaster House. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.0/10 - Popularity: 61% | Activity: 22% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Pop Culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/popculture) > [Celebs](https://www.trendhunter.com/celebs) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Ostentatious Events:** There is a trend towards hosting over-the-top, extravagant events to celebrate milestones and attract high-profile guests. - **Human-sized Decorations:** The use of human-sized props and decorations, such as giant cakes, is becoming popular in event planning to add a wow-factor and create a memorable experience. - **Glamorous Magazine Celebrations:** Magazines are organizing lavish celebrations to mark significant milestones and garner attention and publicity for their brand. ### Who This Affects Most - **Event Planning:** Event planning industry can capitalize on the trend of hosting extravagant events by offering unique, eye-catching decorations like human-sized props. - **Bakery and Confectionery:** Bakeries and confectionery businesses can tap into the trend of human-sized decorations by creating custom, larger-than-life cakes and desserts for special events. - **Print Media:** Print media industry can explore the idea of organizing lavish celebrations to mark significant milestones, attracting attention and staying relevant in the digital age. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Playful Biscuit-Inspired Cakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/party-rings-celebration-cake.md) - [Oversized Party-Ready Pastries](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/poptarts-party-pastry.md) - [Supersized Celebration Cupcakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crumbs-colossal-cupcake.md) - [Biscuit-Inspired Frosted Cakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/party-rings.md) - [Celebratory 10-Tier Cakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/klondike-100th-birthday-cake.md) - [Pastry-Centric Coffee Table Books](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/marchesi-1824.md) - [Celebratory Cheesy Snack Cakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheetleinfused-birthday-cake.md) - [Cake-Centric Gatherings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cake-picnic.md) - [Festive Fashion-Branded Cakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moschino-martesana-golden-panettone.md)
