In 2026, This Is the #1 Color Trend to Wear With Butter Yellow
Shop the elegant combination.
I know we have a new It girl on our hands when I find myself writing about what they're wearing two days in a row. That new It girl is Sarah Pidgeon of recent Love Story: John F. Kennedy Jr. Carolyn Bessette fame, and she's currently hitting the front rows at Milan Fashion Week.
Yesterday, while en route to the Prada F/W 26 show (a likely place for the woman who portrays Carolyn Bessette Kennedy to be), Pidgeon was photographed wearing head-to-toe Prada, including the It color of last spring and summer: yes, butter yellow. I don't know about you, but I grew quite fatigued of hearing about, seeing, and discussing butter yellow last year, but that doesn't necessarily mean I don't like it and no longer want to wear it. It's a great color, but the question is how do we make it look fresh in 2026? The answer lies in Pidgeon's outfit. She wore a fringed butter-yellow knee skirt paired with an oatmeal-colored sheer cashmere tank. Oatmeal is the new neutral color trend people are reaching for right now, and as you can see, it looks especially elegant and modern when paired with butter yellow.
