“Millennial pink” is a timeless colour yet very NOW, and designers can’t get enough of it. The real question is… What is colour millennial pink? And honesty, there isn’t an easy answer to that question! Not everyone agrees on what colour classes as ‘millennial pink’ and it goes from being more peachy pink to being more of a dusty pink depending on who you ask. Therefore, the answer to the question - albeit not a definite one - is that ‘millennial pink' is a range of pink colours. Think of the hotel building in the movie “The Grand Budapest Hotel”, a great representation of the range of colours that can ‘pass’ as ‘Millennial Pink’.  



Many designers adopted this pink into the world of fashion and it has been well received by celebrities both male and female. We seen everyone from Harry Styles in an all pink suit to Rihanna in a stunning pink puffer jacket - even Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton was seen in a sophisticated 'millennial pink' getup. Make-up products and accessories have also adopted this colour giving some breath taking packaging concepts - for example the KKW cosmetics giving us a stunning 'millennial pink' packaged lip kit. Everything and anything 'millennial pink' has been well received and as it is so timeless we will see it again.

How has embroidery in fashion changed? As we posted recently, embroidery has been a very current trend in the fashion world and we have seen this take many forms and added onto many types of clothing items.
