Nostalgia

• The term nostalgia describes a longing for the past, often in idealized form.[1] The word is made up of two Greek roots (νόστος nostos "returning home", and άλγος algos "pain"), to refer to "the pain a sick person feels because he wishes to return to his native home, and fears never to see it again".

• “In a time of anxiety, people are seeking out brands they’re comfortable with and they can trust,” said Ric Hendee, vice president for marketing services at Cotton Inc. in New York.
