Pretty In Pink: Celebs who are inspiring us to support National Breast Cancer Awareness Month

Kylie Minogue in Dolce & Gabanna
After the Australian pop star was diagnosed in 2005, she underwent surgery and chemotherapy, which she was quoted as saying was like "experiencing a nuclear bomb." France's cultural minister has referred to the "Kylie effect," which saw young women start doing regular breast checks. We're glad she's healthy now, and radiant as ever like at Cannes this year in this gorgeous pink satin Dolce dress with a floral belt.

October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month and here at The Thread, we're all about the pink ribbon. Actually, we go beyond the ribbon! We'll be rocking head-to-toe pink throughout the month and you should, too! Let our gallery of pretty in pink celebrities inspire you. They're not only wearing the color, but also championing the cause.
