ORIGIN & LORE
The IKEA Monkey meme features Darwin, a young rhesus macaque who gained international fame in December 2012 after wandering into a Toronto IKEA wearing a custom shearling coat and a diaper. The image of the stylishly dressed yet visibly confused monkey became an instant viral sensation, representing feelings of isolation, being out of place, or looking overdressed for a mundane situation. Over a decade later, the meme remains a nostalgic favorite, frequently used to express social anxiety or the realization that one has wandered into the wrong part of town—or the wrong aisle of a giant furniture store.
