Pretty in Pink
20th July, 2026
Pink has spent long enough being treated as fashion’s sugary side note. This season, it returns with sharper instincts and a much better wardrobe. Forget saccharine shades and overly pretty styling. The new pink is cleaner, stronger and considerably more grown-up, appearing across sculpted silhouettes, fluid draping and statement separates that make colour feel surprisingly easy to wear.
De La Vali puts pink firmly back on the evening agenda. Its dresses combine pastel colour with confident cuts and just enough drama. Keep the styling restrained with barely-there sandals and jewellery that knows when to stop.
At SIMKHAI, the mood is more architectural. Feminine shades meet asymmetric lines, precise cut-outs and beautiful embellishments. These are pieces designed to make an entrance without looking as though they spent all afternoon planning one.
For daytime, remove pink from its comfort zone. Pair a rose-toned top with relaxed denim, or sharpen a blush skirt with tailoring. Even the most committed minimalist may find herself persuaded.
Pretty? Certainly. Predictable? Not remotely.
