Pink Cat Eye Sunglasses

"I don't know what it is about pink, but I just love pink."- Marilyn Monroe.

​

It has been theorized that pink was created when the first person to use pigment made pink by mixing red and white. In Western cultures, the color pink is associated with femininity, love, romance, caring, tenderness, and the birth of a baby girl. While pink is frequently associated with these meanings in many Eastern countries, they do not apply to every society. In Japan, for example, pink is associated more with males than it is with women, although it is worn by both genders. In Korea, it represents trust, and in Latin America, it connotes architecture.

​

There are many famous pink items that have made their way into pop culture.  Pink carnations, pink cotton candy, pink bubblegum, The Pink Ladies, and Pink Cadillacs!  Pink cat eye sunglasses date back to the 1950s. They were first designed with a darker pink lens and pink frames. It was not until the 1970s that pink lenses, pink frames and pink arms became more prevalent. 

​

Pink can be seen as a symbol of femininity, with various associations throughout history. The pink dress Marilyn Monroe wore in the 1953 film "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes" is one of Hollywood's most iconic dresses. It was a symbol of glamour and femininity, as well as an embodiment of Monroe's sensuality.  

​
