Pink is The New Black

 

 When thinking about October’s fall leaves, brisk autumn walks and shorter days, the color pink also comes to mind thanks to the Breast Cancer Awareness Campaign and such organizations as The Breast Cancer Research Foundation®, 

founded in 1993 by Evelyn H. Lauder.

Pink, while feminine and pretty, is also a color of strength and grace. This is reflected in one of the star looks of our autumn/winter 2014 collection Romantic Grandeur, where pink is used in a brilliant way for eye-catching effect.  The perfect color inspiration for the month!

Created by Ian Michael Black, Aveda Artistic Director for Hair Color, the ‘Rapunzel’ of this storybook collection is a gorgeous blonde modernized with electric pink that melds into a beautiful magenta and softened with unparalleled dimension.  Black developed the look through a concise color dipping application process using Aveda Full Spectrum™ Deposit-Only Color Treatment.

And while the pink is certainly inspiring, fun, and vivid, Black notes that with all Aveda collections, the looks of Romantic Grandeur are the ultimate benchmarks of inspiration for the season. “In any collection and any color it’s really about the idea so any of these looks can be modified, reworked and translated in some capacity,” Black says. “Anyone can be inspired by the pink, but instead of the vibrant hue, they could do a more subtle, and yet still quite pretty beige or gold with the same technique. And for those more daring they could change the pink to a blue or green, it’s all left to interpretation.”

romanticgrandeurThe Romantic Grandeur autumn/winter 2014 collection officially launched August 31. Along with featuring sumptuous color, the collection includes cuts, styles and an exclusive makeup collection that can be purchased at Aveda.com and at your local Experience Center.
