For whatever reasons in the past, colors have been made a victim of sexism and especially in the Fashion industry. The one color that has suffered the most is Pink.
Every culture has different reason for it for it but the perception has managed to penetrate most part of the world if not all.
To be honest, women look great in pink (they rock it!) but can men rock this color too? There are many ways that men can rock pink attire, depending on their personal style and the occasion. Here are some ideas:
Start with small accessories: Start with simple accessories like a pink tie, pocket square, or socks if you're reluctant to wear a full pink outfit.
Experiment with the shades: Pink can be found in a variety of shades, from pastel to bright neon. Try out various shades to see which ones work best for your skin tone and sense of fashion.
Pair it with neutrals: Neutral colors like white, black, grey, and navy blue go well with pink. Consider pairing a pink pullover with khaki pants or a pink shirt with black denim.
Consider the occasion: The occasion determines whether pink should be dressed up or down. A bright pink polo shirt is ideal for a relaxed weekend look, while a light pink shirt is appropriate for work casual attire.
Be Bold! Confidence is key: Always remember that how you feel in your clothing counts more than anything else. You'll rock pink clothing with flair and ease if you feel secure and at ease in it!
