      Beneath the glow of street lamps and amidst polished concrete, Jonathan Anderson returned Dior to Hollywood for the unveiling of his inaugural Cruise collection for the esteemed French house. At the Los Angeles County Museum of Contemporary Art, the Northern Irish creative director infused the sleek, cement venue with his take on noir glamour; a Lynch-like blue glow emanated from a convertible lowrider, while Bot’Ox’s “Crashed Cadillac” thumped in the background, complemented by elongated bar jackets featuring frayed hems and similarly distressed jeans. Although the showcased new season had moody undertones and vividly captured the essence of a gritty thriller—often referred to as the Boulevard of Broken Dreams—it didn’t deter the guests from arriving in quintessential sun-soaked fashion. While the ensemble presented a surrealism reminiscent of films such as Cronenberg’s Maps to the Stars, those seated in the front row dressed to reflect the dazzling beaches of Malibu, donning vibrant colors and high-octane shades. Notably, Sabrina Carpenter stood out in a dreamy butter yellow.

      The pop star has cultivated a close partnership with the brand, particularly with Dior dressing her for her headlining performances at Coachella, which also challenged cinematic conventions. Adorned in a drop-waist, halterneck gown crafted from airy chiffon, her look was especially noteworthy as it opened the show. Perhaps inspired by silver screen icons like Sharon Tate, the songstress styled her hair half-up with a lace bow and accessorized with Dior’s Cigale bag, satin bow heels, and a large rosette. Additionally, Chase Sui Wonders, a breakout actress from The Studio and former Who What Wear cover star, was also spotted in the delightful hue. Her outfit was from Dior’s recent autumn/winter 2026 collection and featured a dramatically tiered scalloped hem reminiscent of Bluebell flower bulbs. Monsieur Dior always had a knack for botany.

      Although Hailey Bieber may have previously declared butter yellow "out" last summer while promoting Rhode Beauty’s lemon-flavored Peptide Lip Treatment—an announcement that revived vintage Pucci as the go-to style for the Riviera—this high-fashion endorsement makes it clear that butter yellow is here to stay. Dreamy, delicate, and approved by Dior, explore the summer shade below.
