ONE colour is definitely taking over this season – yes, the days may be darker, but our wardrobes are getting oh-so-brighter, thanks to pink!
Love it or hate it, it’s the sartorial hue of choice right now. From dusty to carnation, rose to salmon and cerise to touches of magenta – pink is on the agenda.
For those who have always shied away from the colour as a symbol of childhood-enforced gender segregation and stereotypes, this new pink feeling is nothing to fear – introduce it slowly with a simple accent piece; a pale pink fur stole worn over an oversized grey masculine coat, or a pink silk blouse paired with some smart pants.
Designers such as Christopher Kane and Jonathan Saunders have given the colour a freshness that has transcended the runways to the high street.
So it isn’t all Barbie dolls and Regina George, and once you realise that pink can become sophisticated, Wednesday won’t be the only day you’ll be tickled pink.
