They do pilates, take care of their bodies and skin, like to dress casually but always in pale pink clothes, drink matcha and smoothies and eat a balanced diet… Meet the “Pink Pilates Princesses” whose athleisure aesthetic is taking social networks by storm, especially TikTok.
According to Urban Dictionary, the Pink Pilates Princess is “a girl [who] She dedicates her time to training, makes green juices and smoothies, and drinks green tea every night. ” To this definition, we can also add that her outfit is casual but very feminine, and she often wears pink clothes.
In fact, the pink Pilates princess trend is much more than just attending Pilates classes. It’s a lifestyle and a state of mind. Of course, its devotees practice Pilates, which is very trendy right now, especially among women. But there’s more to it than that. This aesthetic reflects the image of a modern, feminine woman who is committed to her health and well-being.
On social networks, and especially on TikTok, this trend is reflected in posts and videos of young women dressed from head to toe in athleisure wear: functional yet feminine clothing suitable for working out or going out with friends. The aim is to look chic but without looking like you’ve put in a lot of effort.
For example, a pink Pilates princess might wear a simple oversized sweater (or a luxe sweater), leggings or yoga pants, Ugg-style boots (to slip on after Pilates), or sneakers (especially dad sneakers) in pink or neutral tones. Some opt for a bodysuit (always pink), a sports tank top and cardigan, or a mini dress and leggings. To complete the look, accessorize with silver jewelry, a bow ponytail, and a reusable water bottle like the Stanley Cup.
Apparently, this pink Pilates Princess likes to meditate, read self-help books, take care of her skin, eat healthy, drink matcha and black tea, and she also likes listening to music, especially Lana Del Rey.
This aesthetic is a more feminine version of “that girl” look and is also influenced by ballet, coquette and Y2K trends. Pink clothing and accessories give a very girly vibe to these women who create a soft, feminine world to match their state of mind. Beyond this pastel aesthetic, the pink Pilates Princess trend is part of the broader phenomenon of “soft girl,” an aesthetic that combines softness and strength.
