Barbiecore [1] is the fashion aesthetic du jour [2], and Ciara just showed off a practical way to tap into the trend. The singer took to Instagram [3] to present a hot-pink look fans of the bright shade will immediately approve of. Embracing one of summer's biggest color trends (as prominently featured in Valentino's PP Pink fall 2022 collection [4]), she wore a ribbed co-ord set consisting of a midi skirt with a thigh-high slit on the left and a matching cropped tank top. The two pieces combined offer a smart and practical dressing solution for a warm day. Ciara accessorized with layers of gold chain necklaces, a stack of matching bracelets on each arm, and a small selection of silver diamond rings.
Fresh off her arrival on the red carpet in a plunging black Sabina Bilenko Couture gown [5] at the 2022 ESPYs and following the release of her costume-packed "JUMP" music video [6], Ciara continues to serve up style inspiration at every turn.
Here, Ciara follows in the footsteps of celebrities who have recently made memorable appearances in head-to-toe pink ensembles. These include Anne Hathaway [7]'s sequin Valentino look [8], Khloé Kardashian's 38th birthday latex minidress [9], Lizzo [10]'s Valentino skater minidress [11] and opera gloves at her "Watch Out For the Big Grrrls" premiere, Hailey Bieber's Versace corset dress [12] on Instagram, and Dua Lipa's Balenciaga catsuit [13] during the "Future Nostalgia" tour [14]. These stars are showcasing how to pull off the aesthetic that's poised to get you noticed anywhere you go.
