There's a reason why "Gen Z yellow" has become a trending term — it's the hottest new color! From industry veterans, like Judith Light and Regina King, to young, new faces, like Gaten Matarazzo and Adina Porter, it looks like this bright and sunny shade is here to stay.

Menswear-inspired

Stars like Leslie Jones, Amanda Crew and Susan Kelechi Watson added fun touches and pops of colors to their looks while Issa Rae and Evan Rachel Wood played with proportions like pros.

If you thought florals were only for spring, think again. Dark hues and cold-weather details — like embroidery, lace and long sleeves — make this trend perfect for fall and winter.

All-white everything

Instead of an LBD (little black dress), why not try a LWD? Or a little white suit, for that matter. These celebrities proved that nothing's cleaner than a monochromatic outfit in a crisp shade.

Brocade suits

Emerald
