Formerly reserved solely for men and businesspeople, trousers are now a universal garment that can be worn by everyone. This burgeoning flexibility and versatility present a host of styling opportunities for the humble trouser, whilst providing a brilliant canvas to express personal style. In this article, we focus on styling bright pink trousers, with the aim of using the bold colour as a way to inspire and empower women to embrace their femininity and encourage confidence in every aspect of their lives.
Urban Diva
SS20 seems to be celebrating a veritable colour revolution, with vibrancy and bold shades the stars of the show. With fashion houses such as Valentino, Christopher Kane and Rei Kawakubo leading the pack, you’ll be in esteemed company when reaching for bold colours this Spring and Summer. A great entry point into this trend can be made by taking a statement pair of bold trousers and pairing them with a simple black bodysuit and fedora for added ‘pizzazz’. By choosing a more muted colour in your top, you can add a pop of playfulness in the accessories: patterned boots, a colourful bag, and a chic neck scarf ties the whole look together, exuding modernity for the urbanites and city slickers.

Cloudy Sky
Pairing pink and purple is a colour combination that we visited previously in the blog post, ‘How to Style: Bold Pink Jacket’. Passionate purples fused with romantic pinks creates an elegant and sophisticated love story, balancing both majesty and class with innocence and fun. Coupling bold pink trousers with subtle, purple hues in your choice of accessories adds an air of relaxation and serenity to the energetic nature of bright pink, creating the perfect look that can help you transition from day to night by simply switching out heels for flats. For the trend savvy, this look is the ultimate expression of SS20 – combining the puffed sleeves of Zimmerman and Richard Quinn with the metallic touches of Coach and Toga, and the sheer layers of House and Holland and Richard Malone, defines this outfit as the perfect blend of classic and contemporary.

Raspberry Delight
Channel ‘maximalist’ energy with this raspberry-delight look! A key method of styling bold pieces is to incorporate similar colour hues in other facets of the outfit. The pink hue of the trouser is echoed in the vibrant, exotic print of the jacket, creating a coherent yet exciting look, while the green tones in the jacket can be reintroduced with a silky top – the juxtaposition of this sultry fabric with the structure of the trousers adds a further dimension and element of sophistication to the outfit. To complete the look, the purple hues are echoed in a pair of statement heels that balance out the colour palette, elevating the outfit into a classy ensemble for the empowered and sophisticated woman.

A Drop Of
Layering has been a long-standing fashion staple, but it can be cumbersome, hiding the exciting elements of an outfit. Adding a modern twist to an otherwise classic look can help elevate an outfit and express personal style; why hide a bright, creative look behind a jacket? Choosing a transparent coat adds edge and street-style flair to an outfit, whilst also showcasing the elements underneath. This contemporary style works perfectly when experimenting with bold colours and prints, whilst pairing with understated yet stylish accessories creates an outfit appropriate for any occasion.

Sailor Chic
Why not celebrate the enduring influence of nautical styles on British fashion by channelling the high seas in this ‘Sailor Chic’ look? Reminiscent of bravery, loyalty, free-spiritedness, and independence, reinventing sailor styles is reserved for the empowered woman and fashion-forward. This outfit is a subtle nod to British history, whilst remaining stylish and contemporary through vibrant colours and subtle accessories – a proud and brilliant expression of personal style.

Floral Bloom
Combining floral patterns with pink hues epitomises femininity and style. Blending vibrant prink trousers with a pastel shirt and floral coat exudes softness and sophistication, whilst also displaying your own personal flair through experimentation with new colours and patterns. The puff sleeves of the coat and texture of the shirt is an echo of SS20 runway style, adding motion to the look – perfect for a powerful woman on the go! Rounding the look off with floral accessories and a pop of yellow in the shoes complements the outfit, generating brightness and positivity whilst retaining consistency through pattern.
