Olivia Colman stunned at the UK premiere of The Roses in a caped back, kaftan dress by designer Elie Saab. Crafted from luxurious silk, it's the sage colourway that's really giving us all the autumn feels. The elegantly draped dress features a high neckline and a floor-grazing hemline. The cape sleeves add a glorious floaty finish to the overall look.
A key player in the autumn/winter fashion colour trends 2025, this sage green hue is perfect for the start of the season, easing us in gently to cooler climes. Teaming well with other neutrals, but particularly with shades of cream and brown, while we don't have anywhere to go in such a phenomenal dress, we can draw inspiration from the palette.
From Elie Saab's autumn/winter 2023 prêt-à-porter collection, the dress is now, understandably, unavailable. But there are plenty of sage pieces out right now to help you inject a little bit of red carpet magic into your wardrobe.

woman&home’s Fashion Editor Rivkie Baum said of the colour, “Although mocha mousse and butter yellow are still key hues, as we move into cooler climes, autumnal-inspired hues come to the fore and sage green certainly slips nicely into that bracket. Teaming well with chocolate and cream colourways, sage is a great way of bringing some outdoor inspiration into your wardrobe”
