Butter yellow is still a huge look for spring and Sian Welby’s pastel co-ord gives the soft shade a fresh new spin

Butter yellow was a huge look last summer and it was an unexpected but very welcome key trend to break up the traditional darker tones of winter, too, so it comes as no surprise that this sugary-soft hue continues to dominate the shopping aisles right now.

The delicate pastel colour has a sunny and cheerful vibe to it that will freshen up your day-to-day looks beautifully while still feeling very classic and understated. It’s a hue that will work nicely with pretty much any spring capsule wardrobe and will team up surprisingly well with most other colours.

Sian Welby has clearly been swotting up on her spring/summer fashion colour trends for 2026, as the star worked the buttery shade from top to toe while presenting 'This Morning' earlier this week, and looked incredible in a coordinating shirt and jean look from Mint Velvet. The matching separates looked great on the star, and the denim fabric gave the usually pretty shade a modern and slightly edgier twist that really worked.

This colour trend really has been popular with shoppers for months now and shows no sign of slowing, so investing in some pieces now makes a lot of wardrobe sense. When it comes to styling, you have plenty of options too, as the buttery colour goes well with most tones.

Try teaming your yellow items with other sorbet shades for a very sweet and feminine vibe, or give this shade a grown-up rework by adding crisp white or warm beige pieces.
