Rachel Bilson attended the celebration for the 21st birthday and launch of The O.C. x 21Seeds Campaign on Wednesday, in Los Angeles, California,
Yes. That’s Wednesday, July 31, 2024.
You’ll be forgiven if you thought this was a pinned article from 2022, given Rachel’s Valentino rose-appliqué cut-out mini dress, Valentino Tango pumps, and a Valentino Loco bag are all in the iconic Valentino Pink PP hue.
Back in 2022, a day would not go by without *said in DJ Khaled voice* “another one” of the Valentino Pink PP Fall 2022 looks on the red carpet. Pierpaolo Piccioli may have officially departed the label, but in this look – from the Fall 2023 collection – his legacy lives on.
This signature pink was celebrated for its vibrant and uplifting hue and seeing it on Rachel brought back a wave of fashion nostalgia, but some might swap nostalgia for nausea.
Despite my attempt at humour, this is a genuinely cute look. The nostalgic elements resonate with Rachel’s style in more ways than one, creating a perfect blend of modern chic and timeless appeal.
Rachel, best known for her role as Summer Roberts on ‘The O.C.,’ has always had a knack for fashion that balances trendiness with personal flair. This look is both a nod to her fashionable past and a statement of contemporary style.
However, what are your thoughts on this? Was Rachel too late to the Pierpaolo Piccioli Pink PP party? In the ever-evolving world of fashion, timing can be everything.
Or are you loving this playful, charming look as much as I am?
