A "Hipster" is a term used to describe a subculture that emerged in the early 2000s, characterized by a preference for alternative lifestyles, vintage fashion, and independent music. Hipsters often seek out unique and non-mainstream experiences, favoring local businesses over large corporations. They are known for their appreciation of art, creativity, and authenticity. Hipsters typically embrace a DIY (do-it-yourself) ethos, often engaging in activities like crafting, brewing their own coffee, or attending indie music festivals. They may also be associated with specific trends, such as veganism, sustainable living, and a fondness for retro items, including vinyl records and typewriters.
