I don't know, but the time this author notices this trend beginning, early/mid 2010's, was definitely when it was full force and I still in my head associate these "trendy" pop ups with that culture.

This trend has been developing since the 90s, when hipsterism wasn't even a thing.

As I mentioned elsewhere, it's a result of a data first digital culture, not bearded white guys in tshirts.

Hipsterism is almost dead, the trend towards average is still accelerating.
