Powder Pink Shirts Are Fall’s Chicest Button-Down Trend

2 min read

At Matthieu Blazy’s triumphant Chanel debut last year, the designer featured a powder pink button-down that was made in collaboration with shirtmaker Charvet. The oversized cotton poplin shirt featured two front pockets, pearlescent buttons, and subtly embroidered Chanel branding at the waist. The commercial (and critical) success of the collaboration led to Chanel’s acquisition of Charvet in July 2026—and the trickle-down effect has been decidedly palpable throughout recent fashion weeks.

Sitting on the star-studded front row at Bottega Veneta, Tyler, the Creator was pictured wearing a pink silk taffeta shirt, which he styled over a white T-shirt with beige chinos and a shearling trapper hat. The shirt was from the Italian house’s SS26 collection and stood out among a sea of neutral outfits. With a host of designer collaborations under his belt and two fashion labels to his name (Golf Wang and Golf Le Fleur), when the multi-hyphenate star co-signs a trend, the masses follow.

Just as pink shirts have been worn on the runway and in the front row, they have been spotted continuously on the street style scene throughout fashion month—and not just in one city but several.

One show-attendee wore a structured blazer placed over her pale pink shirt, which she styled with tights and pointed-toe heels, while another wore her shirt collar turned up with a bomber jacket, cropped jeans, and ‘80s-inspired aviator sunglasses.

In New York, the pink shirts were slightly brighter in tone, spotted styled open and tucked into tie-dyed denim. The secret to this effortless look was the accessories: choosing to stack a number of necklaces together and finishing off the outfit with dark sunglasses.
