You'll unlock the ability to set trends depending on which branch of the Style Influencer career you've chosen, but once you start creating them, you'll see your work around town if it's truly the next trendy thing.
Trends are split between masculine and feminine frames, and you're able to create up to five trends per frame.
After creating trends, you may see NPC Sims wearing the exact outfit you created. You can also give them a makeover to manually put them into it, but it's always neat to see them rocking your looks unprompted!
