The meaning of pink in clothing and its psychological perception by others
Pink is considered one of the gender shades. There is an opinion that it is permissible to use this color in clothing only by the fair sex, and exclusively by the young. This is reminded again and again by pink ribbons on the envelopes of girls in the maternity hospital, pink dresses and bows, strollers, toys and all kinds of other little things.
The color pink is associated with youth, carelessness and frivolity. Moreover, many believe that this color is not even suitable for all girls, but only for fair-skinned blondes.
However, this opinion is still wrong. Every year, fashion stylists are increasingly using shades of pink in clothes for men. It is not as aggressive as, for example, red and allows you to give the image softness and elegance.
And correctly selected clothes and additional pink details for a mature lady can visually make her much younger and more feminine.
Who suits pink based on their appearance color type?
In order to more correctly select clothes and their color scheme, there is a gradation of people by color type. The most famous is the “theory of seasons,” according to which color type is determined by the seasons (spring, summer, autumn and winter).
Pink color in clothes for women, what it goes with, what it means, who it suits, how it looks and is perceived and how to wear it - further in the article!
The most suitable shades of pink according to the color type of appearance:
- Spring. Women of this type are suitable for delicate warm tones. For example, salmon, flamingo or coral. Bright pink color, as well as its cold shades, should be avoided. They will make the skin even more pale.
- Summer. Representatives of this type will look great in clothes of cool shades of color. For example, dusty pink. However, they should not refuse warm, bright tones of pink.
- Autumn. Ladies of this color type prefer to choose clothes in soft warm tones of salmon or flamingo. Bright and cold shades of pink should be avoided.
- Winter. For owners of this type, dark tones of pink are perfect. For example, raspberry or ruby. Fuchsia or magenta colored clothing will highlight dark eyes and hair. It is recommended to avoid pale warm shades of pink.
However, this division is still quite arbitrary. Sometimes it is very problematic to determine one specific color type. Intermediate mixed variants are often found. Therefore, when choosing the color of your wardrobe, you should not rely only on this theory.
Using shades of color
Using different shades is important. Look at the photo below. (There will be a lot more trash here, be patient, because even I, a prepared person, am speechless when looking at some interiors with this color.)
It is obvious that they tried to create a kind of pop-glamorous interior, but even despite the odious amount of details, this white and pink interior looks monotonous, because only one shade was used. If one shade is used for the entire interior, it should be a very light shade.
Light, cool shades of pink have taken root in the glamor style, which a bad stereotype dictates to be treated with contempt. Meanwhile, glamor is a great style, very beautiful, very elegant and at the same time humane.
A white and pink glamor style interior can be very beautiful, humane, visually light and pleasant. If it uses light pink color, good expensive textures, few details and a lot of light.
Getting into the right shade is very important. In the photo below you see an example where a too bright wall color overwhelms the entire good interior:
Too much contrast kills all elegance; beautiful mirrors and lamps disappear against a bright background. A soft pink would be much better. Well, the bedspread on the bed, of course, should have been replaced with a more “glamorous” one.
