The color pink is proving to be an eye-catching fashion trend, as well as a powerful one. In previous runway shows, Gucci and Valentino showcased all-pink collections for Spring 2017. Delpozo’s Pre-Fall 2017 collection also wasn’t subtle with its magenta shades on their clothes and accessories. Even Lily Collins and Felicity Jones were pretty in pink at this year’s Golden Globes.
Aside from being just another feminine color, it’s also considered a statement. Glamour mentions that 2017 would be the year of “unabashed femininity,” noting that sporting different shades of pink is an easy way to make one’s presence known. The pink Pussyhats at the Women’s March and the magenta Planned Parenthood pins during NYFW are further proof.
We scoured different runways on how you can wear pink without looking like a child’s Barbie doll.

When an unexpected cold breeze comes, you’ll need a thick jacket to keep you cozy. We suggest a printed pink one like this one from Mary Kantrantzou.

A flowy magenta skirt will see you through brunches or nightly events. You can tone down this color by matching it with lighter colors; or you can follow Sies Marjan’s lead and amplify it with a printed top or cardigan.
