The new Gemini trend in 2025 is centered around Google's Gemini AI feature called "Nano Banana." This viral trend enables users to create ultra-realistic 3D-style portraits and AI-generated images with creative prompts. Popular aspects of this trend include:
- Creating hyper-realistic 4D-style portraits that look like Polaroid photos with celebrities or nostalgic moments, such as "hug my younger self" pictures.
- A viral "Banana AI Saree" trend where users transform ordinary selfies into dramatic vintage 90s Bollywood-style portraits, featuring chiffon sarees, grainy retro textures, and warm golden-hour lighting.
- Making collectible miniature 3D figurines, plush toys, anime characters, superheroes, or video game avatars from simple photos.
- The Gemini Nano Banana tool is available in the Gemini app and through Google's AI Studio, where users upload photos and enter detailed prompts to generate these creative AI images.
This trend has exploded across social media platforms like Instagram, X, and others, as users creatively remix their identities and photos into nostalgic, artistic, and collectible AI-generated visuals. The trend also comes with advisories to use official apps to keep personal data safe.
