Kate Moss and Katie Holmes Both Wore the One Colour Trend That Makes Spring Outfits Look Expensive

If I had to choose just a few people to look to for styling inspiration, Kate Moss and Katie Holmes would undoubtedly make the cut.

Both known for dabbling in new and nostalgic trends with the same fervour, the two have honed dynamic wardrobes that feel fresh, chic and surprisingly approachable. Whilst there are notable differences in their day-to-day style, Moss and Holmes overlap with an effortless ease that seems to run through every look they wear. So, when I see them wearing the same item or trend, I know I'm on to something particularly special. And that's precisely what just happened at Paris Fashion Week.

Disregarding the sky blues and powder pink colours that have been trending for the past few weeks, Moss and Holmes emerged in their favourite spring shade: butter yellow.

Selecting a pretty flowing blouse in a muted yellow shade, Moss grounded her light spring layer with a black trouser pairing, anchoring the look whilst making the pretty colour feel much more wearable. Meanwhile, Holmes paired her pale yellow Zimmermann Cargo Jacket (£1400) and Cargo Pants (£795) with a chocolate-brown Scoop Bodysuit (£275), which she wore to sit front row at the brand's autumn/winter 2025 show.

Butter yellow might strike you as difficult to style, but I'm here to argue the contrary. Not a million miles away from a fresh cream hue, this chic shade retains all of the versatility of the staple neutral whilst injecting a fresh spring energy and a subtle flush of colour. Wearing well with other spring colours like pale pink and white, the trend feels all the more grown-up when styled with richer shades like creamy browns and inky blacks.

I don't think it'll be long until we're all styling this expensive-looking hue. To discover the colour trend that has my two style heroes in agreement, read on to shop my favourite butter-yellow pieces below.
