We explore some of Giorgio Armani’s Prive Shine collection in pretty shades of pink
Giorgio Armani once again brings his haute couture collection to the catwalk, transforming symbols, lines and colours into a new expressive path that cuts across the sense of time. In his most recent show, the designer included some garments from the latest haute couture collection in homage to Milan, creating a subtle common thread that underscores a deep sense of authenticity that transcends seasons.
The collection is luminous: the brilliance of fabrics that almost seem liquid, the sheen of satins and silks interwoven with ultra-fine metallic thread, which create an impression of joyful levity. Where long evening dresses seem to float, and delicate blouses suggest movement with crinoline ruffles featuring an unusual construction. The outfits – composed of long skirts and short bodices and jackets – are imbued with evocative elegance. Embroideries sparkle, and the dresses are like giant blossoms with a supported yet weightless structure, as if in an enchanted garden.
Surprising colours make a statement in the classic world of couture, but what truly caught our eye was the unexpected range of pinks from blush and powder to kasaya and pomegranate.
Embellishing Your Pink Look
We don’t just wear pink on Wednesdays around here. Pink is for every day, every week and every season in our opinion. Regardless of when you’re dawning a fabulous shade of pink, you can either wear chic outfits in pink or embellish your look with these stunning accessories.
Coach Pillow Tabby
The Coach Pillow Tabby is crafted from soft Napa leather. The aptly named Tabby is designed to be your main squeeze and is available in a range of colours. We naturally love the Pillow Tabby in pink!
By Far Tiffany Pink Spray Print Leather Heels
When your confidence is struggling boost it strutting a la Elle Woods in hot pink flip-flop heels or go full lambada in this quirky pink spray print heel from By Far.
Rene Coavilla
Strong, cosmopolitan and confident women can make a true statement wearing these spectacular heels from the luxury Italian shoe designer, Rene Coavilla. We loved the fairytale feel of the bejewelled Cinderella pump and flowery Floriane Sandal.

Meera Toukan’s Statement Plexiglass Clutches
The world of art, architecture and accessories are beautifully combined in the form of Meera Toukan’s eye-catching plexiglass clutches. The Jordanian designer juxtaposes Middle Eastern and Western cultures to form designs that we believe would go well with every outfit – especially a couture summer look!
Handmade in Jordan, each Meera Toukan piece is a work of art, expressing Meera’s understanding and appreciation of traditional Arabic culture in a contemporary, universal milieu. Paying homage to the designer’s heritage, Meera blends the ancient art of calligraphy along with the traditional Keffiyeh to create a collection of coveted clutches. We love her pieces that maintain pride in the Middle Eastern culture!
