These 23 Pink Dresses Are Guaranteed to Make You Smile

The overarching theme for the S/S 22 collections is a desire for our clothes to be fun again, and the styling is centred around an overwhelming feeling of optimism. Designers largely used colour to convey this mood, whether that was with a rainbow print or sunset hue. The most-used exuberant colour was hot pink, with the likes of Valentino, Giambattista Valli, Proenza Schouler and Prabal Gurung creating magical dresses in punchy pinks.
With wedding invites coming in thick and fast this year, Net-a-Porter has seriously invested in occasionwear, buying over 3000 joyful dresses for S/S 22, and has over 10,000 dress options for the season. Scrolling through the new-in section, it seems like a high percentage of these are in bright pink, as many of the most spectacular dresses of 2022 have this in common.
Giambattista Valli S/S 22
When it comes to key styles, Giambattista Valli's ruffled beauty stole the show. Versace had Dua Lipa wearing its high-shine cut-out gown that no doubt other A-listers will wear this year, and Proenza Schouler went for floor-length fuchsia. A lot of these will set you back thousands of pounds, so if that is beyond your budget, we have found so many amazing pink dresses from Other Stories, Monki, Arket, Rixo and more.
