In case you haven't heard, butter yellow is the trending tone for 2025, and everyone's talking about it. The sunny shade has been widely considered an 'It' shade for fashion fans, with its popularity getting bigger since the start of the year.
According to the experts over at Google, the search term ‘butter yellow’ has risen 82% since the start of 2025, officially making it the hottest spring colourway.
This picture of Victoria was taken in 2018 - seven years before it became en Vogue. At the time, the mother-of-four was in Paris at a glitzy party to celebrate YouTube.

Kate donned the shade back in 2012, when she attended the biennial Order of the Thistle Service at the Thistle Chapel in St Giles' Cathedral, in Edinburgh, Scotland. The mother-of-three wore a lovely butter yellow coat dress, with a hem that looked as if it was designed just above the knee. The pretty tone ensured she stood out from the crowd and went expertly with her brunette tresses.
