A Rosy New Outlook On Eveningwear
Don’t wear pink. It’s one of fashion’s golden rules. Even those of us who grew up with a Barbie doll in each hand have written off the color as too froufrou or girly. We’ve always been anti-, until a recent spate of rosy dresses made us reconsider the hue. Pink became the unofficial shade of Miami Art Basel; Anouck Lepère and Dasha Zhukova were just two of the partygoers photographed in bubblegum-colored frocks last week. Softer blush tones have been turning up on red carpets, too. Elle Fanning looked like a princess at the British Independent Film Awards in an Oscar de la Renta confection, while Kristen McMenamy, who generally favors a more gothic (read: all black) look, made an argument for pink at a dinner for the new Valentino: Master of Couture exhibit.

And fashion week’s approach has everyone’s nerves a little frayed, it seems. The gossipmongers at Page Six claim that at Thakoon Panichgul’s studio, even his little dog, Stevie, is stressed—she’s reported to have bitten an intern. Team Thakoon denied the claim in print, and took to Twitter to add: “Dear interns present and future, selling stories to Page Six will not get you hired.” Whatever else is or isn’t true, that last bit most certainly is.
