Trend Alert: Lilac is the New Pink

It’s not just a color that your wardrobe needs right now; it’s the new it-color of the year and a trend that has garnered so much attention lately, especially among Gen-Z. Be it the promotional graphics of the tv series ‘Euphoria’ or the quicksilvery hair; lilacs are everywhere. Should we thank the K-stars or perhaps Hollywood for bringing this it-color to us?

We think it’s the vibe of 2022. And we are not taking anything away from classic pink hues; it will always be chic. However, the trend is dying down a little, and we can’t blame anyone. After being touted as the color of royalty back in the days, it’s now coming strong with a spirit that says ‘new me’ and heavenly shades. Tempted to smell fresh lavenders? We will do you one better!

Let’s live and breathe in lilac-colored ensembles to feel fresh and elegant like true royalty. Yes, we are talking about Kate Middleton. She has been spotted wearing a lilac shade several times, and everyone has adored her grace and style. It’s not just the royal dutchess; we’re seeing this gorgeous hint of purple on social media feeds, runways, and roads.

Case in point? Amal Clooney, no less than royalty, wore a jaw-dropping lilac dress at the Venice Film Festival at the time when ‘lilac’ wasn’t a thing. She’s well ahead of us when it comes to fashion. Dua Lipa and Hailey Bieber went one step further this year and made fresh-looking lilac eyeshadows the latest trend of 2022.

Worried how to pull off lilac shades? Our shoppers have rounded up a list that will add femininity and elegance to your wardrobe.
