Think pink this summer with these clothing and accessories from the likes of Balenciaga and Issey Miyake, guaranteed to make your next outfit pop—and have the Mattel doll icon’s seal of approval
It’s hard not to notice that hot pink is everywhere right now.
Actress Margot Robbie is set to star and produce in Barbie, a live-action movie of the Mattel doll icon—but the colour once associated with the toy has also dominated runways and red carpets for months. Think Valentino’s spring/summer 2022 collection, which consisted entirely of bright pink designs, and Versace’s spring/summer 2022 show, which saw Naomi Campbell on the runway in a hot pink pantsuit. Meanwhile, Molly Goddard, the designer behind a now-famous pink tulle gown worn by actress Jodie Comer in Killing Eve four years ago, also showcased bright pink pieces in its spring 2022 ready-to-wear collection.

Pink is sometimes thought of as a challenging colour to style, though there are different ways this shade can be incorporated into your closet. Start small with accessories, like these Oscar de la Renta earrings or Linda Farrow x The Attico sunglasses. Up the ante with a patterned Etro hat, or a pink version of the bag of the moment, the Balenciaga La Cagole. If you’re feeling bold, go for an item of clothing in hot pink—whether a sheer wrap top by Rejina Pyo or a pair of Issey Miyake Pleats Please shorts. Finally, if you can’t get enough of the colour, go for a full body option with a JW Anderson dress, or this asymmetrical one-piece swimsuit by Hunza G.
