Between Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce announcing their engagement, and these loved-up photos of George and Amal Clooney arriving in Venice ahead of the Film Festival, love most definitely is in the air this week.

Venice is, of course, where the Clooneys tied the knot back in September 2014, and Amal seems to save her very best dresses for revisiting the Floating City. Butter yellow has been huge news all summer long, but Amal just demonstrated this colour should be on your moodboard for your autumn capsule wardrobe, too.

woman&home's Fashion Writer Molly Smith says: "Butter yellow isn’t exclusive to the warmer season, and we expect this colour trend to dominate well into autumn/winter.

"With its soft warmth, it pairs perfectly with darker autumn neutrals like charcoal, chocolate brown or deep burgundy. We predict that this hue isn’t going anywhere. From featuring autumn/winter handbag trends 2025 to being a vibrant tone for winter outerwear, butter yellow is the ultimate transitional shade."
