Often tinged with hints of love and romance, pink’s effervescent nature is masked with a sense of vibrancy. Associated with uplifting shades and the positive side to the spectrum, society’s perception of the colour pink has continuously transitioned over time.

The mid-19th century was an era where men in the western world predominantly wore dark colours, therefore the shift for light, pastel palettes were left as an option for females. Marilyn Monroe and Jackie Kennedy served as the markers for pink’s luxury in the 1960s, however, once the 1980s arrived punk bands like The Clash and The Ramones give a new meaning to the colour. With more recent cultures of music and celebrity changing, the course of pink is now considered a colour for both – blurring the lines of gender-colour stereotypes.
