Represents: romance, sweetness, delicacy, innocence and naivety. It's these qualities that endear Emma to us.
People who like pink are usually feminine, nurturing, tender, intuitive and non-violent.
Research suggests that pink makes people calm and soft-hearted.
So how much pink does Ms Pillsbury have in her wardrobe? Let me tell you:
4 cardigans, 2 dresses, 2 skirts and 1 shirt.
Yes, Ms P is very sparing with her pink, she only gets it out in an emergency and by emergency I mean confrontation. (Mostly when confronting (whispers) sex!) Check her out:
How is one to cope talking about sex education when the mere idea of it sets off heart palpitations and your OCD? The title of the episode ‘Sexy’ was enough to send Emma, not out for condoms, but straight into pink twice. Against a backdrop of sexual inquiry, Emma’s pink outfits evoked her retreat into child-like innocence and naivety beautifully. Vibrant pinks equal celebration, fun and excitement so that’s what she chooses to wear to the celibacy club meeting where she tries to ‘sell’ the idea of chastity charms to the kids.
The next day Emma is still maintaining her innocent and fun guise in the lunch room with Will discussing the charms and teenagers abstaining from sexual activity when...
in walks Emma's polar opposite, Holly Holiday in the mature and down to earth colours of blue and black, accentuating even more Emma’s romantic and perhaps idealistic perspective.
The mention of Will’s erection first thing in the morning drove her straight out of bed, not to brush her teeth but to the subdued pink section of her wardrobe in an attempt to quell his passion! You see pale pink is seen as calming, placid and lowers energy levels! By the look on Will's face in this scene:
Emma's outfit didn't have quite the desired effect.
In ‘Asian F’, it was back into the soft pink tints of the wardrobe in an attempt to calm down hostilities between Rachel and Mercedes. Emma as mediator during the ’Diva-off didn’t want any hand to hand combat, only voices please.
I hummed and haaed over this final cardigan from 'The Rhodes Not Taken'. When you hold it up against pink it looks orange and when you hold it up against orange it looks pink! I decided it had more pink in it than orange and given the context ie Emma coercing Finn, I figured she wanted to look as innocent as possible thus it could fit in here; you may have your own interpretation?
