There’s something irresistibly tender about butter yellow. It’s delicate, warm, and ever-so-slightly nostalgic. This season, the soft pastel has emerged as the colour du jour—gentler and more sensory than its louder counterparts. It strays away from the coolness of “quiet luxury” neutrals, while embracing warmth in its own softened way. But the rise of this creamy shade isn’t just purely aesthetic. It reflects fashion’s growing love affair with food-driven storytelling, where colour, texture, and taste come together to stir feeling as much as style.
From “latte makeup” to “tomato girl summer”, food has undeniably become fashion’s new vocabulary. Butter yellow slides right in, suggesting comfort and understated elegance. Brands like Hermès, Chanel and Miu Miu are leaning into the luscious hue, offering up accessories and ready-to-wear in tones that feel both rich and inviting. At the same time, Singapore’s food scene is experiencing a subtle butter renaissance—think flavoured artisanal butters, traditional breakfast toasts, and butter-infused coffee. The result? A fashion moment that tastes as good as it looks.
Ahead, peruse GRAZIA Singapore’s edit of the butter yellow pieces that are sure to melt seamlessly into your wardrobe.
Soft Carriers
From slouchy silhouettes to artisanal woven textures, these butter yellow leather bags and accessories bring tactile elegance to sunny-day dressing. The Petit Tote from local fashion brand Rye makes for a sleek, no-brainer office companion, while the Loewe mini Pebble bucket bag is your perfect plus-one for weekend brunches with the girls.




Mellow Moves
Soft yet striking, butter yellow footwear is the easiest way to brighten your step this season. From strappy sandals to ballet flats, these picks balance ease with impact. Pair them with flowing linens or crisp cotton for just the right dose of sunshine. For something polished yet playful, try the Jacquemus Les Slingbacks Duelo 40 leather pumps. And when your feet need a break, slip into the Bottega Veneta Riva flat mules or Chanel’s lambskin ballet flats.



Light Layers
Bask in the understated charm of butter yellow, where soft tailoring meets effortless silhouettes. This season’s ready-to-wear pieces are true palette cleansers—easy to dress up or pare down. For sun-drenched beach days, the Hermès À la Lumière du Flambeau double-faced scarf is endlessly versatile: wear it over the shoulders, as a headscarf, or tie it into a top. For evenings out, shimmy into Self-Portrait’s taffeta midi dress, or opt for Valentino’s long embroidered skirt paired with a breezy blouse. It’s feel-good fashion, softened to perfection.
