Catherine Zeta-Jones' latest look will help transition your favourite florals from one season to the next
As we close out summer, we're expecting to see more moody blooms emerge


When it comes to summer outfit ideas, florals might not be considered groundbreaking but Catherine Zeta-Jones offered a fresh take on this timeless spring/summer trends 2025 when she stepped out on the promotional tour for the latest series of Wednesday, the Netflix smash hit.
The Welsh actress took a tip from her character Morticia's wardrobe and opted for a stylish black skirt suit ensemble from Yanina Couture. While a black two-piece might not automatically come to mind if you're trying to think of new warm weather looks, we love how each piece of the co-ord featured beautiful bright red poppies, first at the hem of the jacket and across the entirety of the skirt.
As we hurtle towards the end of August, autumn is just around the corner, and moodier blooms offer an easy transition from one season to the next. The pretty floral element of the outfit created a vibrant look, breaking up the stark black base, especially when coupled with the actress' sold-out razor-sharp Casadei pumps.
Moody blooms will help ease you into autumn
Catherine Zeta-Jones' ensemble gave a fresh spin to a seasonal classic. Florals are always on the agenda when it comes to spring/summer, but as we head towards the end of those gloriously warm days, Catherine's outfit reminds us that there is a whole heap of glorious style switch-ups just around the corner.
Together, this two-piece delivers a bold statement, but as with all good suits, you can separate the pieces out to offer an array of looks. A bold jacket such as Zeta-Jones' will dress up a pair of barrel leg jeans beautifully, adding instant polish, or throw it over your favourite LBD for a fresh take on date night outfits.
Equally, a statement floral skirt is so easy to mix and match with existing favourites. Wear it with a plain top and trainers for brunch or add a silky camisole and kitten heels for cocktails.
