Empower her day: inspiring gift suggestions for International Women's Day
A flower, a color, an idea to pay tribute. Here's what to give on Women's Day.
International Women's Day is a special occasion to celebrate the strength, resilience, and extraordinary contribution of women in society. This day, which in Italy coincides with the date of March 8th, is an opportunity to pay tribute to the multiplicity of the feminine spirit that emerges in every role. And for this reason, no flower and color could be more symbolic than the mimosa.
The meaning of mimosa
Mimosa is a flower that grows in many regions of the world and, in our Italian tradition, symbolizes women and the day dedicated to them. This flower, with its golden petals, represents vitality, sensitivity, and sweetness, while the bright and vibrant yellow color symbolizes joy, positivity, and energy. It reflects the sunlight that begins to emerge after the rigors of winter.
Yellow, the color of women
For this reason, if not a blooming flower, the idea can be to give a yellow garment or accessory for Women's Day from the new spring-summer 2024 collection. The shades proposed by stylists and designers are numerous, ranging from delicate pastel tones to brighter and more intense ones reminiscent of the sun's reflections.
Philosophy and Zimmermann focus on lightness with their summer dresses to be worn with flat sandals, while Etro opts for flare pants with a fresh 1970s vibe to be paired with cork wedges and exotic micro tops. For the sporty ones, a sunflower yellow sweatshirt from Saint Laurent or chunky-framed Loewe glasses can be paired with outfits where denim remains the protagonist. For those who want a sunny touch, you can give an accessory for Women's Day: a pair of Swarovski earrings or the iconic Sicily bag from Dolce&Gabbana that brings the Sicilian sun even to the city.
