Pop culture often informs brands of upcoming trends, and the October 2021 pop culture trends underscore how brands are interpreting the latest pop culture moments.
One notable example comes from Heinz. The brand recently debuted the new Heinz Packet Roller, a new device that will ensure you can get every last bit of sauce. Not only is this helping consumers looking to indulge in the condiment, but it also helps to reduce waste by limiting the number of packets needed.
Another intriguing example from the October 2021 pop culture trends was done accomplished by Levi's and Felix the Cat. Felix the Cat, the famous cartoon cat from the 1950s and '60s, is the muse for the new collaboration 'Felix the Graduate.' The collection features shirts, sweaters, hats, jeans, and more.
