Trend of the week: Yellow

Bring the sunshine with this season’s hottest hue!

Inspiration

Lemon, mustard, sorbet, canary, neon who knew one colour had so many shades?

While Calvin Klein and Louis Vuitton sported frothy sorbet confections, Mulberry opted for canary cagoules and Bayswater bags; with Elie Saab favouring a head-to-toe homage.

We loved Marni’s sunny ethnic prints but our Louise Kennedy trumped the pantone charts with her red carpet-worthy Yomiko gown (www.louiskennedy.com).

Style Notes

* Colour-block yellow with neutrals like white, grey and caramel for a quieter approach to the trend. Zara’s neon yellow sandals are an instant way to lift a classic jeans and tee combo.

* Add matching nail varnie for a fresh daywear look. Choose the right shade for your skin tone.

* Olive? Try lemon and vivid bright hues.

* Pale? Opt for mustard and darker yellow hues. Vivid hues demand super clean lines.

* Keep accessories to a minimum and let the colour shine.
