Worn in a total look for a Quiet Luxury vibe, or mixed with denim for a more casual spirit, buttermilk yellow stands out as the color of summer, and potentially our fall as well. Discover our outfit ideas and a selection of pieces to embrace this butter-like hue for yourself!
Buttermilk Yellow: From Outdated to Summer Color, a Remarkable Rise
Halfway between yellow and cream, buttermilk yellow had disappeared from our radar for a few years. Reminiscent of the outfits worn by wedding and communion guests in the ’90s, this shade was sidelined by the cooler and bolder hues of recent trends.
However, the call of pastels in the spring-summer 2024 collections has led to a reassessment of this tone’s place in our hearts and in the collections of fashion houses. Jil Sander, The Row, Prada, Loewe, and Jacquemus have draped their muses in butter-colored fabrics at recent fashion shows. A gamble that is paying off, as buttermilk yellow is finding its audience and seems already to secure its place for the fall!
