Rule of Three: Pink Poufy Dresses Are Having a Major Moment Right Now Thanks to Lady Gaga & More

Rule of Three is a new franchise from PureWow that points out nascent trends before they’re all over your Instagram feed. Why Rule of Three? Well, it’s not a “trend” until a few (at least three) very familiar faces hop on board.  

The words “pink poufy dress” give us serious ’80s prom flashbacks, complete with crimped hair and teal eye shadow. But it’s 2019, baby, and the pink poufy dress is back. Just ask Lady Gaga, singer Dua Lip and model Coco Rocha, who recently stepped out in their own little big pink dresses.

Unlike the belted blazer or Gianvito Rossi Plexi pump, we don’t foresee this Rule of Three making a move into the mainstream. But hey, who doesn’t love a bold look?

The “One Kiss” singer kicked off the pink poofy dress resurgence on March 25 with a hot pink feathered Calvin Klein minidress from the 2019 pre-fall collection. (It’s worth noting this dress was worn bowling. Yes, like the kind with pins and ugly shoes.) She accessorized the eye-catching dress with Aquazzura Sundance plateau 140 sandals, which are now a cool 40 percent off (originally $895, now $537) online, and cinched the dress with a black belt. As if the pink number wasn’t enough, the 23-year-old musician also upped the ante with a fierce smoky cat eye. Now, we can all agree feathered minidresses aren’t suitable for most occasions, but she definitely rocked it.
