The Real Meaning Behind The Color Pink
And, I DO NOT MEAN BREAST CANCER AWARENESS! Pink is the color of unconditional love and nurturing, or so it is said. It has perpetually been associated with femininity, warmth, intuition and calm. And it has been hi-jacked by breast cancer organizations as a metaphor and changed the conversation from romance to money. I was never the “pink” girl, but I was always inspired by the pink world. Everywhere we look, in theater, art, dance, music, and poetry, pink holds a provocative position. The inspiration of this hue, from hot to cool, has a powerful impact on lingerie and swimwear design.
I find that the enormous range of pink colors can tell so many different stories. From bold fushia lips to the soft pink of new baby blankets, to the bottle of Pepto-Bismal that we all have somewhere in a closet.
Pink is a color that is found everywhere in our every day lives, but now it seems to have finally come out of hiding.
