Pretty in Pink

Pink has sometimes been associated with negative gender stereotypes and as appropiate for girls only. Pink is “girly”… but you think yellow is a neutral colour? There is no logic.
To help to lift up pink and place it as a universal colour I post some lovely examples of print and TV ads containing pink motives.
Pink is chic and sexy. Pink means loads of fun, joy, happiness, sense of humor, innocence, confidence, self-worthiness, acceptance, passion, relax, glamour.
Pink was used in advertising from the early beginning. Because of it’s strong message. Pink becomes extremely powerful in Duracell ads. Converse makes it cheeky while HP makes it intimate. Pink goes well with Hermes's orange. It's charming and sweet in the Miss Dior Cherie campaign.

In French ad campaign for Duracell’s most powerful battery yet, Duracell’s iconic pink bunnies, together form a pink sumo wrestler, a pink rhino and a pink tornado.

Miss Dior Cherie advertisement featuring Marina Linchuk, was directed by Sofia Coppola on the streets of Paris. It’s so very “Lost in Translation“. Charming, unpretentious, bit nostalgic, chic and fun. The song is called Moi, Je Joue, by Brigitte Bardot. A lot of powder pink as well as strong pink accents. Very elegant.
