Breaking free from the Age of Average

New York – April 2025 – After 25 years at the forefront of global trend forecasting, Fashion Snoops is declaring a bold new mission: to safeguard creativity from an algorithm-driven slide into sameness. Rebranding to Future Snoops, the company champions human creativity as the ultimate competitive advantage in an age where sameness has become the greatest business risk of all. 

In a world becoming increasingly homogenized by data-driven decisions, Future Snoops is championing a different path forward. The agency, powered by a team of global wayfinders valued for their vision and instinct, sees the warning signs everywhere: creativity will continue to flatten into a self-reinforcing cycle of sameness if decisions are outsourced only to an algorithm. 

To coincide with the rebrand, the company has released a provocative new report: “The Creative Unflattening.” More than a forecast, it’s a blueprint for businesses to break free from “The Age of Average.” The key findings include: 

● Despite infinite data and cutting-edge technology, creative stagnation and market homogenization across industries prevails 

● What companies optimize for efficiency, they lose in distinctiveness ● What companies gain in predictability, they sacrifice in possibility 

● That creativity is the currency of the future 

From First Spark to Breakthrough Innovation

With a 25-year dedication to understanding the undercurrents of consumer behavior and cultural values before they surface, Future Snoops brings AI-powered tools together with the creator to ignite new possibilities that algorithms alone simply can’t capture. 

Founded in 2000 by Itay Arad and Lilly Berelovich, Future Snoops has grown from a New York startup into a truly global force. Their influence spans across womenswear, menswear, accessories, youth, active, home, tech, automotive, food + drink, beauty and wellness, guiding brands toward distinctiveness in a world pushing toward sameness. 

Lilly Berelovich, FS Co-Founder & CCO explains: 

“Our evolution to Future Snoops reflects our core belief: in an increasingly homogenized world, creativity is the currency of the future—and it needs a human pulse. We don’t just deliver trends—we create space where ideas ignite, helping to fuel the breakthroughs only you can see.” 

To mark this milestone, Future Snoops is partnering with ANDMORE, High Point Market Authority, Interwoven by the International Textile Alliance, and the American Home Furnishings Hall of Fame to redefine how the home and interiors industry experiences trend forecasting. 

This multi-organisation partnership unites the most influential platforms in home furnishings to spotlight Future Snoops’ visionary approach to cultural insight and product innovation. Through immersive exhibits, live panel discussions, and interactive installations at High Point Market in April, the collaboration will amplify a shared commitment to design leadership, storytelling, and shaping the future of the home industry. A full schedule of Future Snoops’ events at https://www.highpointmarket.org/Events.
