This obviously isn’t the first time you’re coming across the umpteenth article about all things pink. What I choose to post here is not so much the trend but look into the “Why”… Why is it that, as a collective, we are choosing Barbiecore, how does it make us feel to fit into it? What is a fashioncore even?
Look up the 2023 Pantone color, and it’s a shade of pink: Viva Magenta 18-1750. In an article for Vogue US, Pantone Color Institute’s Executive Director Leatrice Eiseman further went on to ascribe the following, “It’s brave, it’s fearless, it’s pulsating, and it promotes optimism and joy.”
