The “Demure” Remote Work Trend is Here, and its Hillariously Spot on

Remote work is having its moment in the spotlight with the rise of the “demure” trend, and it’s a blend of irony and subtle shade that we didn’t know we needed. This trend isn’t about being genuinely composed; it’s all about taking the serene, polished vibe and giving it a wink and a nudge.

Whether it’s hopping on a Zoom call with your camera off while rocking a face mask and fuzzy slippers or low-key shading that one coworker who insists on making awkward small talk, “demure” remote work content is here to serve the laughs and the side-eye. And honestly? We’re loving every second of it.
