Yellow Mini Dresses

Made for it. Yellow is the ultimate warm-weather colour, fresh and happy and lovely against a tan. Light, breezy fabrics like linen, cotton and broderie keep a yellow mini cool on the hottest days, and the brighter shades feel right at home in full sun. Add a woven bag, flat sandals and sunnies, and it's a holiday and festival staple. It simply feels like good weather.

Loads of colours work with yellow. White is the crispest partner and keeps it fresh; tan, cream and denim calm it down for day; and gold warms it up better than silver. For a bolder move, cobalt or sky blue against yellow looks brilliant, and a pop of pink or orange leans playful. If you'd rather keep it low-key, tonal yellows with neutral accessories always land. Shoe-wise, tan, white or a nude heel all work.

Very easily. A satin, silk or sequin yellow mini instantly reads more evening, especially in a butter or bright shade. A strappy heel takes it up fast; add a small clutch and a little gold and it's ready for a cocktail evening, a birthday dinner or a summer party. A halter or one-shoulder neckline dresses it up further, and a bold lip finishes it. Butter yellow in particular looks soft and elegant for evening.
