Weirdcore is an online style that can envoke feelings of: Nostalgia, Uneasiness, Confusion or disorientation.
Theres quiet a few sub genres for it as well eg; dreamcore or kidcore.
“That person is dressed in a weirdcore style and their outfit makes me nostalgic.”
A genre of aesthetic that bases itself on concepts like nostalgia, derealization, surrealism, disorientation, and disassociation. This aesthetic is sometimes depicted with "holy" imagery, playing into the senses of comfort or uneasiness depending on the viewer. It also displays a variety of bright, sometimes epileptic, color schemes. Visual representations of these scenarios are either created to express discomfort and/or eeriness, depict nostalgia referencing to common childhood themes (ex, kidcore, playgrounds, toys...) or simply to follow a strange trend. This concept is associated with liminal spaces regularly as well. For a better idea of what it is, there are many references that you can find on TikTok and Pintrest ^^
