Pink Dirndl

Pink as a traditional colour: a colour with character

Pink was long underestimated in traditional Bavarian fashion. That has changed. Pastel pink, dusty rose and warm rose shades have established themselves as firm favourites in dirndl collections over recent years. Today, a pink dirndl is one of the most popular colour choices: feminine without being loud and suited to a wide range of occasions.

With 40 models, we offer a solid selection across all pink shades, from delicate pastel to rich dusty rose and warm raspberry.

Which shade of pink for which occasion?

• Wedding guest: Dusty rose or pastel pink is the right choice for weddings. The colour is dressy and feminine without competing with the bride in white. Dusty rose reads more mature and elegant than bright pink.
• Spring festivals: Pastel pink is the natural colour for spring festivals. Light, fresh, seasonally right. No other dirndl colour suits cherry blossom and spring sunshine as well.
• Oktoberfest: A pink dirndl at the Wiesn stands out. Among many red, green and blue dirndls, pink is a deliberate and refreshing choice.
• Bridesmaid: Pastel pink and dusty rose are very popular for bridesmaid outfits in Bavaria. The colour complements a white bridal gown without competing with it.
• Alpine festivals and Kirchweih: Dusty rose or raspberry pink suit the warm atmosphere of alpine festivals well. Less loud than red but warm and inviting.

Styling tips: what goes with a pink dirndl?

• White dirndl blouse: Classic and always right. White and pink creates a fresh, clean look for all occasions.
• Cream blouse: Warmer than white and very good with dusty rose and rose. The most elegant combination for weddings and traditional evenings.
• White lace blouse: The first choice for formal occasions. White lace with a dusty rose or pastel dirndl is very elegant and looks excellent in wedding photos.
• Rose gold jewellery: The best jewellery choice for a pink dirndl. Rose gold has a pink component and creates a harmonious combination with any shade of pink.
