Thinking pink!
It seems the pink shades that have dominated fashion all year long are officially more than just a passing fad. Named “the color trend to rule 2022” by Harper’s Bazaar back in March, the outlet cited the spring/summer 2022 runways — particularly Valentino’s all-pink show — as the catalyst for hue’s popularity.
THINK PINK: HOW BOLD FUCHSIA BECAME 2022'S HOTTEST COLOR — SHOP NOW
But in the months since, it seems our passion for pink — an enthusiasm evidently shared by Travis Barker, Saweetie, Zendaya and Anne Hathaway — has ventured beyond Valentino, continuing its rosy reign thanks in part to the trending "Barbiecore" aesthetic.
A product of several factors including Y2K nostalgia (looking at you, Legally Blonde!) and Margot Robbie’s viral looks as she plays the eponymous leading doll in 2023’s Barbie, these moments have seemingly only fueled the flourishing of Fuschia fashion.
“The bright, bubbly, and bold shade is a welcome mood booster from the past two years amid the pandemic,” mused Grazia US’s Ty Gaskins. “Maybe that’s why we’re never going to tire of seeing the hot pink hue on the carpet. Style stars including Zendaya, Saweetie, and Nicola Peltz (to name just a few) have all rocked Valentino neon pink looks.”
From handbags to shoes, here are eight products to help you hop on the pink trend — all from Nordstrom’s Anniversary Sale.
